It is well past my bed time, so I'm not going to try to come up with a solution to your problem right now, but I will note that your final sed script (if you used double quotes instead of single quotes, as I suggested before) will match:
in addition to matching the otid and dtid strings you want it to match. Since you have only shown us two records from your huge file, I have absolutely no idea how many other records might have this (or other) false matches for the way you're using to find pairs of matched records.
It is also interesting to note that the problem presented in post #1 in this thread is apparently unrelated to the problem presented here. Why the misdirect asking for a match on a tp-da value when what you're really looking for is a shared otid and dtid value filtered by part of a Source Address value? And, what keeps that part of a Source Address field from appearing in some other record's Source Address or Destination Address field? Are you sure the initial value you're looking for doesn't appear in some other field in your file as well?
Once you figure out what the otid value you're looking for is, do you know if the dtid value you need to match comes before or after the record containing the otid value? (If you know it comes after the value you've identified, it sure would be nice to just read your huge file once instead of reading the whole file more than three times.
How big is your "huge" file? Are we talking about megabytes, terabytes, or petabytes? How much memory do you have on your system?
What operating system and shell are you using?

Reason: Fix typos.
You lost me. Are you looking for records containing
- tp-da : 0.1.078394420 and / or SSN: 6 GT: .85290985144?
- And then the otid value from within those to be matched with a dtid value? Or any other field's value?
- What is the sequence of otid / dtid,otid always first? Or last?
- Should otid records be printed regardless of dtid found or not?
- How many pairs will occur in one log file? Are they mixed up or in sequence?
