Add strings to test lines
Hi all,

i have a file that looks like this;
Code:
8120 ahdmesb:8001
8330 ahdmesb:8001
8888 vfnla88s-z2:8888
9060 ahdesb:80
9063 ahdesb:80
9070 nleaip-vip:9070
9090 nleaip-vip:9070
9123 nleaip-vip:9080

i want it to be displayed as:
Code:
ahdmesb:8001 is listening on port 8120
ahdmesb:8001 is listening on port 8330 
vfnla88s-z2:8888 is listening on port 8888 
ahdesb:80 is listening on port 9060 
ahdesb:80 is listening on port 9063 
nleaip-vip:9070 is listening on port 9070 
nleaip-vip:9070 is listening on port 9090 
nleaip-vip:9080 is listening on port 9123


this is reversing the fields order and adding test into lines

thanks in advance Smilie
Eman
