Thanks for the reply blackrageous! Stuck an echo in and USERID looks good. Also echo'ed the return code ($?) afterwards (RC=22), but Uncle Google isn't telling me much on it...

Code:
Executing mkuser command...
pgrp=ACRGENU groups=ACRGENU home=/home/lbubba shell=/usr/bin/ksh gecos='Bubba Jones' login=true su=false rlogin=true daemon=true admin=false sugroups=ALL tpath=nosak ttys=ALL expires=0 auth1=SYSTEM auth2=NONE umask=22 registry=files SYSTEM=compat loginretries=5 pwdwarntime=5 account_locked=false minage=0 maxage=12 maxexpired=1 minalpha=5 minother=2 mindiff=3 maxrepeats=3 minlen=8 histexpire=26 histsize=10 fsize=-1 cpu=-1 data=-1 stack=-1 core=-1 rss=-1 nofiles=-1 stack_hard=-1 unsuccessful_login_count=0 lbubba
Usage: mkuser [-R load_module] [-a] "attr=value" ... newuser
ERROR: MKUSER command failed with return code 22

A little more info... I've found the issue seems to be the single quotes around the "gecos=" attribute. If exclude the
Code:
gecos='${USERNAME}'

attribute, then it works. However, if I cut/paste the echo output (including the gecos attribute) behind a mkuser on the command line, it runs. For some reason, it doesn't like the single quotes inside the variable.

asadmin-get

asadmin-get(1AS)						   User Commands						  asadmin-get(1AS)

NAME

       asadmin-get, get - gets the values of the monitorable or configurable attributes

SYNOPSIS

       get  --user admin_user [--password admin_password] [--host localhost] [--port 4848] [--secure|-s] [--passwordfile filename] [--terse=false]
       [--echo=false] [--interactive=true] [--monitor=false] dotted_attribute_name

       Gets the values of attributes. If the --monitor option is set to true, the monitorable attributes are returned. If the --monitor option	is
       set  to	false,	the configurable attribute values are returned. On Solaris, quotes are needed when executing commands with * as the option
       value or operand.

OPTIONS

       --user		       authorized domain application server administrative username.

       --password	       password to administer the domain application server.

       --host		       machine name where the domain application server is running.

       --port		       port number of the domain application server listening for administration requests.

       --secure 	       if true, uses SSL/TLS to communicate with the domain application server.

       --passwordfile	       file containing the domain application server password.

       --terse		       indicates that any output data must be very concise, typically avoiding human-friendly sentences and favoring well-
			       formatted data for consumption by a script. Default is false.

       --echo		       setting to true will echo the command line statement on the standard output. Default is false.

       --interactive	       if set to true (default), only the required password options are prompted.

       --monitor	       defaults to false; if set to false, the configurable attribute values are returned. If set to true, the monitorable
			       attribute values are returned.

OPERANDS

       attributename	       attribute name in the dotted notation.

       Example 1: Using get

       asadmin> get --user admin --password adminadmin --host localhost --port 4848
       "server.resources.jdbc-resource.jdbc/PointBase.*"
       server.resources.jdbc-resource.jdbc/PointBase.description=<null>
       server.resources.jdbc-resource.jdbc/PointBase.enabled=true
       server.resources.jdbc-resource.jdbc/PointBase.jndi-name=jdbc/PointBase
       server.resources.jdbc-resource.jdbc/PointBase.object-type=user
       server.resources.jdbc-resource.jdbc/PointBase.pool-name=PointBasePool

EXIT STATUS

       0		       command executed successfully

       1		       error in executing the command

       asadmin-set(1AS), asadmin-list(1AS)
