[Discuss] mysql question

[dan moylan]

needing to dump on a regular basis a data base on a computer
owned by my hosting service, i generated a bash script:

mysqldump -u moylanus_moy -p'********' -l moylanus_dat > moylanus_dat.sql

the script runs fine on my local computer, but on the remote
one i get a warning that the password on the command line is
insecure -- access denied.  is there some way around this?
