I am new to UNIX so have problems in the syntax, can you please provide me the syntax.
Currently I use
sudo -su weblogic
propmt.."pw"
how should I use it now? I tried using -S "pw" multiple places and it did not work.
Sorry about the delay.
-S makes sudo "read the password from stdin", and this is what it means; it takes input from its standard input, to which you can redirect the output of something else, like echo printing out the actual password.
Again, make sure your script is only readable by the concerned users, because anyone who can cat it will see the password.
