[wellylug] Mysqldump problem

Hi

The following is a script that I'm having some trouble with. The
permissions are set to 744.

#bin/bash
rm /root/MySQL_BackUp/backup.sql
mysqldump -p --password=********* -alldatabases >
/root/MySQL_BackUp/backup.sql

When I issue the command "mysqldump -p --password=*********
-alldatabases > /root/MySQL_BackUp/backup.sql" it works properly,
however when I try to use it inside the script it fails saying
"mysqldump: unknown option '-b'

Any idea what is going on?

Thanks

Michael
