Hi,
I want to know the command in Korn shell (ksh) by which I can accept a user input (through keyboard) into a variable. The condition here is that the input value is a password, so the keys typed by the user should not be echoed on the screen.
I know a command “read” which takes input to a variable but I dont know how to accept in a “silent” mode so that the password doesnt show up on screen.
