Similar to the above lines there are lots of variable declarations with the variable SUN4V

#SOURCEFILE_LOCATION---------------------------

SOURCEFILE=/usr/platform/sun4v/driver/file.cfg


I want to search only for this occurence and replace the sun4v with sun4x variable but not anywhere else

Iam not sure how to check the veriosn of sed. iam using solaris 8.


Thanks a lot.
This should be straightforward with my sed-suggestion above.

interchangeconfig

INTERCHANGECONFIG(1p)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				     INTERCHANGECONFIG(1p)

NAME

       interchangeconfig - Updates Debian specific Interchange configuration files

DESCRIPTION

       interchangeconfig reads and writes the Interchange configuration files /etc/interchange/features.cfg and /etc/interchange/settings.cfg.

       The following settings can be changed with "interchangeconfig":

       "DEBUG"
	   Whether to enable debug mode or not.

       "FULL_URL"
	   Whether to enable FullUrl configuration directive or not.

       "ROBOTS"
	   The Interchange Debian package uses a separate configuration file "/etc/interchange/robots.cfg" for the directives "RobotUA", "RobotIP"
	   and "RobotHost". It is recommended to include these settings so Interchange can distinguish between robots and ordinary users.

       "SWISH"
	   Whether to enable Swish search or not.

       "SOAP"
	   This setting determines if Interchange starts the SOAP server as well.  This is only available if the Perl module SOAP::Lite is
	   installed.

       "TRAFFIC"
	   You can choose different sets of server parameters ("low", "high" and "rpc"). Any store based on the foundation demo will change its
	   behaviour too.  If "rpc" is selected, the Interchange server will run in PreFork mode.
