This is why it's a bad idea to provide passwords via arguments to commands. For example: mysql --user=root --password=iluvmuffy44

- bdunbar 15y agoI was appalled when an application - one we paid a lot of money for - did just that by default. Which is funny because their app sits on top of WebLogic which provides an easy-peasy way of encrypting the passwords. The vendor either doesn't know enough about WLS to make it happen or they don't care.
