Hi,

To control if a user/passwd is correct, you can use this :

sqlplus /nolog >/dev/null <<END
whenever sqlerror exit 99

connect $connection          -- with 7.3.4 on AIX, it doesn't exit there
desc dual                           -- so I used this (must work everywhere)

exit
END Then, if $?=99, your user/passwd (in $connection) is not correct.

That's all !

Bye
