I see two IP addresses coming after "host" in your file, so do you want to get each IP addresses that occurs after each "host" word? Can you illustrate the output you want?
Yes, exactly what I want. Sample output would look something like this:
The trick here is, some lines have one host, some have two, and others have none. I need all of the lines in the output file though, with just the IPs resolved.
I want to make a script to read a list of ip addresses from a file then convert those ip addresses to ip number.
ip number is made by removing the dots then transfer to a number , so the ip number transfered to binary then to decimal which will represents the ip number 0 : 4294967295

ethers
ethers(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual ethers(4)NAME
ethers - Database that maps Ethernet addresses to hostnames
DESCRIPTION
The /etc/ethers file is used in conjunction with the reverse address resolution protocol daemon (rarpd) to map Ethernet addresses to host-
names. It contains information about the known (48-bit) Ethernet addresses of hosts on the Internet.
For each host on an Ethernet, a single line should be present in the file with the following information:
Ethernet-address official-host-name
Items are separated by one or more spaces or tabs. A number sign (#) indicates the beginning of a comment that extends to the end of line.
The standard form for Ethernet addresses is:
x:x:x:x:x:x
The x is a hexadecimal number between 0 and ff, representing 1 byte. The address bytes are always in network order.
Hostnames can contain any printable character other than a space, tab, newline, or number sign (#).
Hostnames in the /etc/ethers file should correspond to the hostnames in the /etc/hosts file or to those provided by the name service.
EXAMPLES
The following is a sample ethers file:
08:00:20:01:e5:1c host1 # Comments go here 08:00:20:01:d0:4c host2 # Comments go here 08:00:20:01:e0:1d
host3 # Comments go here 08:00:20:00:c2:4e host4 # Comments go here
