Aaron,
Try structuring your <exec> task using <arg>'s
For example,
<target name="build-database" description="Install the database using
the CMD File">
<exec verbose="true" basedir="${project.base.dir}"
program="${commandfile.name}">
<arg value="${sqlserver.name}" />
<arg value="${database.name}" />
</exec>
</target>
I think that I have seen this done, but I haven't done it myself. Don't
know if this helps.

Subject: [nant-dev] Problem with exec task and CMD/BAT files?
I am having difficulty getting a CMD file to execute with NAnt. I'm
using Win2000 and I have specified the following:
<property name="project.base.dir"
value="C:\Projects\Reference_Database"/>
<property name="sqlserver.name" value="localhost\VSdotNET"/> <property
name="database.name" value="Reference"/> <property
name="commandfile.name" value="Create_Reference_Database.cmd"/>
<target name="build-database" description="Install the database using
the CMD File">
<exec verbose="true" basedir="${project.base.dir}"
program="${commandfile.name}" commandline="${sqlserver.name}
${database.name}" timeout="30"/> </target>
The CMD File (which is like a batch file) will not execute and hangs
with the following lines:
build-database:
[exec] C:\Projects\Reference_Database\Create_Reference_Database.cmd
localhost\VSdotNET Reference
[exec]
C:\Projects\Reference_Database>C:\Projects\Reference_Database\Create_Ref
erence_D
atabase.cmd localhost\VSdotNET Reference
I can manually run the cmd from a command prompt and it executes without
a problem.
I've tried renaming it to a .bat file and I have the same problem.
Thanks,
-Aaron
