Can some one tell me a command that I can use for this? I played with the tr (translate) command but tr works byte by byte. Meaning that when I use the tr command all "d"s are converted to "D"s throughout the file instead of just "DALLINUX01".

Thanks!
Why don't you use sed?

Code:
sed 's/dallinux01/DALLINUX01/g' file
