Subject: Making ODBC connections without explicitly coding a password

We're developing Ruby programs which read and write from/to DB2 tables
on a mainframe.  We're the first people in the company to use Ruby so
are rather feeling our way.  So far we've been using our own IDs and
passwords, explicitly coded, to make ODBC connections to access
development tables, but I've learnt that due to our security rules I
won't be allowed to know the password for the ID which will access live
tables.  Can anyone please suggest a way round explicitly coding the
password?  Thank you.
