If a user issue the following command:
dsmc -node=<nodename> -pass=<secret password>
all other users are able to see his password with a command like:
ps -edf | grep dsmc.
It seems to bee a real problem of security for us.
Can anyone help me to find a way to enter a real secret password at the
CLI command line
when I use the -node option?
