My suggestion is to put it in an environment variable and set that variable from a shell startup script that is secured with permissions.

Ansible asks for the decrypt key when it runs.SteveOn Wed, Jul 8, 2015 at 11:34 AM, Suresh Raja <suresh.rajaabc@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:Hi:I cannot use .pgpass as the password stored here is not encrypted.can i use a encrypted password from unix shell script. has anybody ran into same situation.
