Scott,
You are setting the variable PASSWORD, then referencing the variable PASS.
Don't feel bad, it happens to the best of us...

I am trying to pass a shell variable into a "here document" in a unix shell
script, i.e.,
export PASSWORD=the_pass
svrmgrl << EOF
connect user/$PASS
do_stuff_here;
commit;
exit
EOF
I have tried: "$PASS" , \$PASS , and just plain $PASS - no dice.
Anyone know how to do this? I spent too many hours in the sun this past
weekend and am drawing a blank...
Thanks,
