What we do is to create logon files that contain the .logon tdpid/userid,password; line in them. These files are given permissions such that
developers cannot read/execute them in test and production, but can in development. In the fastload/multiload/bteq/whatever you do a .RUN
FILE={logon file} to logon.
This means that your logon information is centralized to one location so it can be changed if need be, and as well developers don't have access
to run scripts or even know the logon information for environments where they shouldn't.
