Verify Login Credentials

[jsquizz]

I have a small script that is running an extract process,

Code Select Expand

$ARSDOC get $MyParams
returnCode=$?
if [ $returnCode -ne 0 ]; then
echo "it didnt work!"
else
echo "it worked!"


A colleague was not in the stash file, and it returned "It worked!" instead of  "It didnt work"

Is there a way that I can verify that a login works, I can add it as a function in my script. Other than using ODWEK.

Thanks in advance

I suspect you need double braces [[ ]] around comparisons with the -ne operator.  But I'm not sure which shell you're writing in, and they're all a little different and picky about that stuff.
