Re: Command-Line syntax for Connectivity

Title: RE: Command-Line syntax for Connectivity
Yes, everyone with access to the logs will be able to read passwords.
 
I need to spawn multiple sqr programs - 50 to 100 child programs -hence the need for complete command lines.
 
This is a gaping security hole. The only way around it I can think of is to
put some kind of front end together with VB or something?
 
Any other ideas for hiding passwords?

However, if I'm not mistaken, everyone with access to the logs will be able to read your password.  If you enter Username@DBInstance, you will be prompted for your password, and others will not be able to read it.
