Hi all,
I could find solution for hiding database username/password appearing on system process table while using 'ps -ef|grep sql*' command in unix.
For this I used the following:
USER = username
PASS = password
{ echo ${USER}/${PASS}@TNS; cat <sqlfile>; } | sqlplus -s

Could any one help me out in doing the same in Perl script?

While I used the same cmd in perl as

open(SQLFILE,">$SQLF");
print SQLFILE ("$a");
close SQLFILE;
$b=`{ echo ${USER}/${PASS}@TNS; cat $SQLF; } | $sqlplus -s`;
open(SQL,$b);
print SQL ("$b\n");
close SQL;

I am getting an error as:
Input Truncated to 239 characters
