Hi Unix Gurus,

My daily export file (daily_exp.sh) contains : exp userid='system/password' file=file_name.dmp grants=y rows=y constraints=y compress=y full=y inctype=complete log=file_name.log

The system password is stated clearly in the export script file. Has anyone encrypt/decrypt the system password before passing it as a variable to the export script ? If yes, could I have a copy of your script ? Thanks.

Regds,
New Bee in Unix
