Script works fine until I | more

Hello all,

This beats me. I have a script that executes some commands and redirects their output to some text files that I will parse. The commands are along the lines of:

dsmadmc -id=admin -pa=admin -outfile=/home/tools/qlog.txt q log f=d

If I just run the script it works. If I execute it from the command line, the output looks like this:

[root@portdat:/home/tools] cat qlog.txt

This is not even the command. It looks like two things are happening: the format is being screwed up somehow, and the f=d option is not being executed. Any ideas?

This is on AIX 5.2 using the ksh.

Thanks for any input,

Michael
