Very Computer

Hi,
         I have written a shell script 1............and internally its
calling another shell script 2........input to  redhat specific
chkconfig command... which executes and builds links in bootstartup
scipt directories (rc.d).

Actually i needs to pass a variable $DIRECTORY  of my command available
( can hard code but i am
setting it in the 1st script) to the 2nd script how to pass that... As
the setting is happening before the calling of
shell script2, i just tried like putting  echo "$DIRECTORY" into the 2nd
shell script, which is not working is there
a way to get the functionality.

shellscript1:
#!/bin/sh
---------
---------
---------
DIRECTORY="/sbin/ntp"
---------
---------
/sbin/chkconfig "shellscript2"
---------

shellscript2:
#!/bin/sh
-------
echo "$DIRECTORY"     <------put to see whether getting the value here
or not..

$DIRECTORY   -c ntp.conf          <------if it is so ,  i could use like
this.................

thanks,
srinivas.
