Hi

Is there a way to insert the login command in a shell script file ?
I have tried splunk login -username xxxx -password yyyyy, but each time it prompts the username on the console and the remaining lines of the script are not considered.

As I have already changed the password, I wrote :
splunk list user -auth admin:newpwd
and I got the error message

You an run following command into your script, which will not do anything but will create a session and it will not prompt for username/password.

splunk list user -auth username:password

Thanks for the answer but it looks that this command is not working with the free licence
In handler 'users': Requires license feature='Auth'
