This isn't the right way to call it. It's equivalent to typing
osql "-E -S $... < ..."
i.e., putting everything into quotes and passing it as the first argument
<exec program="osql">
<arg value="-E" />
<arg value="-S ${nameOfDBServer}"/>
<arg value="-n" />
<arg value="-d ${nameOfDatabase}"/>
<arg value="-Q < "${DBScriptPath}"" />
</exec>
This is the right way to call it - except for the redirection in the
last arg.
To understand this, you need to understand that redirection is a
function provided by the command line interpreter. It's not provided
(at least not directly) by the mechanism NAnt uses for actually
executing other programs. You could probably make this approach work by
having the exec invoke cmd (on Windows) or the shell of your choice (on
Mono), passing it the entire command line formatted correctly. But that
wouldn't be the cleanest way of doing it.
My copy of osql indicates that there's an -i option for specifying the
input file. Can you use that? That would be the easiest, cleanest way
of doing things.
In the long run, it would make sense for NAnt to provide an attribute
input="..." for this functionality, but it's not there yet.

Thanks for your help in advance!
