Hi,
In oreder to connect to a database using a shell script it is always necessary to set the environment first and then connect to the database and execute whatever the statements u need to and come out of the script gracefully.

ex:
#!/bin/sh
export ORACLE_SID=$1
export ORACLE_HOME=more /etc/oratab|grep -v '#'|grep -i $1|cut -d":" -f2
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/usr/lib
export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$HOME/bin:$PATH

sqlplus -s sys/<passwd> as sysdba <EOF
select name from v$database;
archive log list;
exit
EOF

The above script echoes the name of the database you are connected along with the archive log mode information.

To connect to sybase, write this in the command line:

isql -Sservername -Uusername -Ppassword
1>use database
2>go

when you're done, just type quit.

Although i don't recommend using the -P option as other people might see your password.
