hi walid2mi,
As per your code, it will change all the occurances of any value after "=" with the new string..

Michaelrozar17,
I tested your code and it replaces the entire string with the new string.
before your code
Code:
ServerName=Address

After your code: i.e
Code:
sed 's/\(ServerName=\).*/Actual Address/g' Property.file

we get
Code:
Actual Address

instead of
Code:
ServerName=Actual Address

Hi michaelrozar17
Your code works fine, i had missed out the "1".
Can you please explain the code and how it works...

Thanks!!!
