How to insert values command will ask for before executing it

[jackhdev]

I'm trying to convert a P12 file to a PEM file. When I execute the command, the terminal asks me for three things:

P12 passphrase (I type it in, hit enter)
PEM passphrase (type it in, hit enter)
PEM passphrase confirm (type it in, hit enter)

I know I can execute a sudo command all in one shot by using the following:

echo sudopassword | sudo rm -rf /file.txt;

How can I add all three values in one shot? Thanks

echo each parameter followed by a newline.

For example:

echo -e "${param1}\n${param2}" | openssl...

echo -e "${param1}\n${param2}" | openssl...

I tried that and it didn't work. I'll have to look into "expect."

Should work fine, I have used this technique in a number of scripts, one that generates certs as well

Expect should do the trick though.

Really? Could you put give me the same thing you gave me above, but set the passwords to "test"?

Should it be: echo -e "$test\n$test\n$test" | openssl ...
