An example:

Code:
awk '/begin time/{p=1} /end time/{p=0} p' logfile

Hi,
I think the awk library is not installed in my system. I tried executing the command but i m not getting any output.

Is there any other command to get logs between two time frame. The time format is hh:mm:ss.Can date also be included while reading the file?

I want the logs for the particular day and particular time.

Ahamed.

The given example extracts lines between 2 patterns, not times. To get lines between arbitrary times you can use a shell script. Here you can find a time arithmic example:

Difference between two timestamps

What about this?
Code:
sed -n -e '/^06/,/^07:00:00/p' logfile
