Hello

I'm trying to make mysqldump in a shell script but I can't deliver
password to sql server.

I have command in the script:

mysqldump databasename -u username -p password >
/to/a/directory/dump.sql

When i run the script it asks for a password and takes the password
given in the script for a table name.

How can I give the password in the script???

mysqldump --help wasn't wery helpful...

-Kalle

Thanks
