It's not clear what key should be used for the sort. But if it were the string as a whole, we could try:
[/code]
You can change "sort keys" to "sort { EXPR } keys" where EXPR is an expression that compares $a and $b and returns 0, -1, or 1. The implied default is "$a <=> $b", but you can customize it to sort on a subfield, like:
otheus,
This looks good and I see you have an output for "count" but I'm a little confused on how to use it in practice. The keys, in particular, is something I'm not familiar at all with. If we have it sort on the subfield dstport, and then match somewhere, but srcip is different within the same record, what is the output?
Also, do I need to write a perl script or can this be done from the command line?
I ran the command you have in your original block of code, and it gives the output that radoulov's code gives with a Count at the bottom of each record (which is blank, meaning it just reads "Count:" with nothing filling it.) I would guess that has something to do with the foreach in your next block of code that I'm not really sure how to implement.
Can any one give me command How to delete duplicate records with out sort.
Suppose if the records like below:
345,bcd,789
123,abc,456
234,abc,456
712,bcd,789
out tput should be
345,bcd,789
123,abc,456
Key for the records is 2nd and 3rd fields.fields are seperated by colon(,). (2 Replies)
