I guess I'm not so embarrassed after all, my O'Reilly Bash book doesn't
seem to cover those details.
I get the [ ] for the test
I don't get the braces around the variable but it definitely works
Now - my last problem
if you recall, I am 'exec' a perl file but the variable $LDAPADMIN_USER
isn't getting passed to it. I thought that if I used exec
exec '/root/scripts/ldap_useradmin.delmail.pl'
instead of just
/root/scripts/ldap_useradmin.delmail.pl
it would get passed automatically. I added a line
export $LDAPADMIN_USER
but still no go
what am I missing here?
Thanks
Craig
