<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I’m testing a script where I pass an IP address to a
Windows command/batch file. The IP is separated by the ! as shown
below. In the definition of the command, I define –p $ARG1$.
And finally on the host I’m trying to catch the argument. Either
the command definition or the actual argument in Windows is not right.
Any comments?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
