I changed the script and now all is well. However I have two concerns:
1) Paranoid about the password being in this script. Is there a way around this.
2) Since I had to change the script to make it work, Is there a bug in 3.23.41??

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

/dev/null
2>&1
            ret=$?
