Need help with IF and Grep

Smilie

I would like to write a script to read this yast2_vhost.conf file.
if the word maintenance exit then end script otherwise continue to
execute a few more commnands.

I have a file call yast2_vhost.conf and it contain multiple entries call
maintenance.html
/srv/www/maintenance/
/srv/www/maintenance/maintenance.html ..etc

Here is what I have and it doesn't work correctly.
How can I perform a grep and it will give me a contain word (maintenance) instead of a string or the whole line of info.

or is there a CONTAIN in IF statement ?



******************************************************
#!/bin/ksh
result=$(grep "maintenance" /etc/apache2/yast2_vhost.conf)

if [[ $result = maintenance ]]; then
echo "you messed up"
else
cp /etc/apache2/orginal.conf /etc/apache2/current.conf
fi

********************************************************

Thanks much,

Y

NAME
weekly, weekly.conf -- weekly maintenance DESCRIPTION
The /etc/weekly script is run, by default, every Saturday morning on a NetBSD system. The /etc/weekly.conf file specifies which of the stan- dard weekly services are performed. The variables described below can be set to ``YES'' or ``NO'' in the /etc/weekly.conf file. The default settings are in the /etc/defaults/weekly.conf file. (Note that you should never edit /etc/defaults/weekly.conf directly, as it is often replaced during system upgrades.) rebuild_locatedb This rebuilds the locate(1) database, /var/db/locate.database, which must also exist, in order to be rebuilt. rebuild_mandb This rebuilds the apropos(1) database /var/db/man.db, using makemandb(8) with the -f option. rebuild_whatisdb This rebuilds the whatis(1) database(s). Note that NetBSD provides a default whatis.db for the system manual pages and this may not be needed. (Adjust your /etc/man.conf as necessary; see man.conf(5) for details.) FILES
