When I first tried this script with the -u and -p args I get an error:

bash: !an: event not found

It's not clear here if you were trying to use bash's history functions
(a ! immediately followed by some characters to repeat a previous
command containing those characters) or if your password actually has
an exclamation character.

I suspect, from your message, that the second case applies here, in
which case you have to escape the exclamation.

Yes, you are correct. I tried using single quotes in the ./netrc file but it doesn't work. Using it in-line via -u and -p did the trick!

I did not get the quoting to work or the .netrc, but i did get the conf file to work
