if the password is a good password, it probably has some characters in it
the shell is not happy with. tried single-quoting the password itself?
if in doubt, use "echo" with the password and make sure you get the right
thing back. This is the most common problem i've had, but then again i
don't like having password on the command line so have to admin i havn't
used it that way often...shows up in your command history.
