Hello everyone,
We are trying to automate a snapshot backup procedure for Sybase ASE. In order to do that we need to execute a quiesce and release script on the database. Isql however does not seem to support authentication like for example Maxdb has with the Xuser mechanism or Oracle with it's remote OS authentication.
Has anyone found a way to incorporate an Isql login into a shell script where they do not rely on storing a password in a text file which is read when the script is executed? We really do not want to do that for both security and practical reasons.
Any help is appreciated,
Sander
