The trouble about SU ...

Ok, there you go :
As root.
su - dbuser -c "customers.exe upd_prclst"
or
su - dbuser -c "customers.exe upd_prclst;exit"
is putting me into a new shell as user dbuser.
This user then has full access to all of his environment but the prog customers.exe upd_prclst is not ran.
I then key in an exit command which puts me back to the root environment. The prog is executed ok in the dbuser shell.
I suppose there must be a CTRL-D or something missing but

svn-fast-backup
svn-fast-backup(1) General Commands Manual svn-fast-backup(1) NAME
svn-fast-backup - very fast backup for Subversion fsfs repositories. SYNOPSIS
svn-fast-backup [-q] [-k{N|all}] [-f] [-t] [-s] repos_path backup_dir DESCRIPTION
svn-fast-backup uses rsync snapshots for very fast backup of a Subversion fsfs repository at repos_path to backup_dir/repos-rev, the latest revision number in the repository. Multiple fsfs backups share data via hardlinks, so old backups are almost free, since a newer revision of a repository is almost a complete superset of an older revision. This is good for replacing incremental log-dump+restore-style backups because it is just as space-conserving and even faster; there is no inter-backup state (old backups are essentially caches); each backup directory is self-contained. It has the same command-line interface as svn-hot-backup(1) (if you use --force), but only works for fsfs repositories. svn-fast-backup keeps 64 backups by default and deletes backups older than these; this can be adjusted with the -k option. OPTIONS
-h, --help Shows some brief help text. -q, --quiet Quieter-than-usual operation. -k, --keep=N Keep a specified number of backups; the default is to keep 64. -k, --keep=all Do not delete any old backups at all. -f, --force Make a new backup even if one with the current revision exists. -t, --trace Show actions. -s, --simulate Don't perform actions.
