i need to run a process, PB, and keep it running, for avoiding problems i run it as background providing the user, and password, for connecting to oracle, this with the command:
PB -u myuser -p my password &
but by using ‘ps -ef | grep PB’ anyone can see the password. There is another way to run the process, run it in foregroung:
PB -u myuser
and it prompts for the password
‘Enter password:’ once typed the process is started.
I would like to run the process in background, but avoiding the password to be shown with any ‘ps’?
