Configuring yum to bypass the proxy

$

Hi,
To configure YUM to bypass the proxy, I have modified those 2 files: "/etc/yum.conf" and "/etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date", where I have added my account and my password.
In the "/etc/yum.conf" file, I have added this:
Code:

proxy_username=fr\MyLogin
proxy_password=MyPassword

And in the "/etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date" file, I have added this :
Code:

enableProxy=1
enableProxyAuth=1
proxyPassword=MyPassword
proxyUser=MyLogin
httpProxy=The_local_Proxy_addr

Other people can access those 2 files and so can access my password. Is there another maner to do in order to avoid this.
Thnx in advance.
