create a config file with something below

username=abc
password=xyz
....
....
...
servername=efg

save the file as important.config

In your shell script add the below line

. /filepath/important.config

after that you can access the value "abc" using the $username variable.

Code:
 
$cat imp.config
username=abc
password=xyz
 
$cat test.sh
#!/bin/ksh
. imp.config
echo $username
echo $password
 
$./test.sh 
abc
xyz

search what is dot character in this forum or just search for source command for more information.
