The << operator creates a set of commands to be executed until a particular label as part of the calling command and only the calling command is displayed on ps -ef. This should work the same for sqlloader as it does for sqlplus or ftp or su or whatever else. Just put the username/password on the inside of the << operator and you should be golden.
HTH, Bambi. =============== sqlplus << EOF system/incredibly_secret_password select * from dual; exit EOF -----Original Message----- Sent: Thursday, October 25, 2001 11:56 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L When running Sql Loader from a Unix script is there a way to code it so that the password will not be displayed when someone does ps -ef? I know how to do it for sqlplus, exp and imp but not sql loader.
