I am not able to get sudo to read from stdin. Has anyone else had this
problem with sudo on Tru64? Does anyone know a solution?

The test of reading from stdin is

sudo -S somecommand <<EOD
mypassword
EOD

I have also tries sudo -S somecommand < filewithpassword

TIA.

Tru64-Unix 4.0D running on an Alpha Personal Workstation 600au and
eventually an Alpha Server 4100.

Bruce.
