Hi All,
I should know this but am drawing a complete blank.
I have a simple script that I want to run to automatically log our server into or network and firewall.
The firewall log in script look like this:
Code:
#! /bin/bash
lynx -dump -auth=username:password&03 www.google.com
The password is "password&03". We have to change our passwords every 90 days and the new password must be different than our last
24. Yes, our last 24. So I just use the same password and increment a number at the end.
Anyway...
That script chokes on the '&' in my password. I can not figure out how to properly escape that character so bash will pass the full password to the script.
Any thoughts?
Chris
