Seems we are getting there:

did run your code.
output:
Code:
 nawk -f fran.awk test.csv nagios.cfg
define host{
        use                          generic-host
        host_name                    hello
        alias                        hello.hello
        address                      127.0.0.1
        contact_groups               mymail
parents byebye3
}

So parents which was hello3 got changed to right one from csv
field2. But other in host_name hello and in alias hello.hello didn't

Can you help me more with it, why didn't change?

thanks very much for any help..
