Trying to pass a password: bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('
howdy,
so I'm make a plugin work for Nagios, and the commandline is:
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_mssql -H MySQLServerName -u MySqlAccountName -p MyPassword(#XXXXX -d MyDatabaseName
it is barfing with:
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('
Thoughts?
Do I have to wrap something around these freakish characters?
Peace,
Rich
