Re: backtick operator

When I execute the script from the command line I am seeing the correct output.

Does this message means it's failing in some other environment? Some environment you're not telling us about? Perhaps a web server? Something else?

grep -i "$dbname " ~/.passwd > $idfl
[download]

Are you sure this is looking in the right home directory?

Yes, it looks like it is executing in the right home directory - I am executing the script as the same userid and same environment in both instances. The file (.passw) in the home directory looks like this: `databasename1 username1 password1 databasename2 username2 password2` [download] ect.	[reply] [d/l]

I should clarify - "When I execute the script from the command line I am seeing the correct output." - I am talking about executing the getDBlogin script here	[reply]
