Here's something to start you off - probably a more effecient way but anyway Smilie

Code:
$ cat ./azmath.ksh
#!/bin/ksh

passwd=bbcddefghhi12334

echo "${passwd}" | awk 'BEGIN { old_a = "unset" }
                        { split ($0,a,"") }
                        END { for ( i = 0; i <= length($0); i++ )
                             {
                                if ( old_a == a[i] && a[i] !~ /[0-9]/ ) {
                                   printf( "Duplicate %s\n", a[i] )
                                }
                                old_a = a[i]
                             }
                        }'
$ ./azmath.ksh
