As the Perl folks tend to say, TIMTOWTDI
Here's one way how you could strip $LAN from your $RULES.
<pre>
STRIPPED_RULES=$(echo $RULES|tr \\040 \\012|grep -v $LAN)
</pre>
Of course if LAN contains more than one entry you would also have to
split those entries in situ.
Should your shell script not be using a Posix compatible shell
then you would have to replace the $(...) command substitution
by `...` backtick delimiters.
