Extract particular number from the command output
Hi Folks,

I want to use particular number as a variable output..Please find the below for scenario...

Example 1:-

Code:
Below output i want to use secondary group 9003 as a variable output
$ id -a |awk -NF '{print $3}'
groups=99(local),9003(testadmin)

Else

Code:
I want to use 2006 as a group ID 
$ id -a oracle |awk -NF '{print $3}'
groups=2006(dba)
$


Note:I don't no whether it have secondary ID present or not.If secondary ID present i wanna use or i have to use just group ID...Above group ID number may vary depends upon account.

Thanks,
Susi>SSmilie

How about using the -G option of id:

Code:
$ id -G | awk '{print $NF}'
9003
$ id -G oracle | awk '{print $NF}'
2006

Hi Chubler...

I can't directly use oracle because i am going to create user account.It may vary oracle name...

I will use as a variable in that place and find the details below.

Code:
SIMILOGIN_Profile=`grep -i $similer_profile /etc/passwd|awk -F: '{print $1}'`

secondory_group=`id -a $SIMILOGIN_Profile |awk -NF '{print $3}'`

Thanks,
Susi.S

How about:

Code:
secondory_group=`id -a $SIMILOGIN_Profile | awk '{print k[split($3,k,"[ ,=(]")-1]}'`

or
Code:
secondory_group=`id -a $SIMILOGIN_Profile | awk '{f=split($3,k,"[ ,=(]"); print k[f-1]}'`

or
Code:
secondory_group=`id -a $SIMILOGIN_Profile | awk -F= '{print $4}' | awk -F'[,(]' '{print $(NF-1)}'`

You may also need to use nawk instead of awk

2002
$ uname -a
Linux test1 2.6.9-67.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Nov 7 13:56:44 EST 2007 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

$ id -a oracle
uid=2006(oracle) gid=2006(dba) groups=2006(dba)
$ id -a oracle | awk -F= '{print $4}' | awk -F'[,(]' '{print $(NF-1)}'
