It may be noted that the case here deals with a pin/password
that needs to be fed each time to start an application (not the Unix user
password) at Unix startup. Instead of doing this manually after the machine
is started, I wish this to be done by hardcoding and ensuring that only the
application owner has the "password file" permissions (as the application
will be executed "su -" that user). Any suggestions please?

Gentlemen,
How do I hardcode a password in a script (especially for
applications that need to come up on machine startup but need a specific
non-root password to be input)?
