perl script help

Hi,

I am writing a perl script and need some in extracting some data. Basically it is a Log Analyzer and there are multiple log files from where the data comes.

i am done with the grep part of the userID with this code-
Code:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
open(VALUE, "< arcotwebfort_20May09_00_03_55.log");
@stock = <VALUE>; 
@matches = (grep(/$username/, @stock));
print @matches;

it gave me this output--

i got the sessionID's from this,they are-10088781,10088815. like this there are plenty of sessionID related to a single user.

i collected this information in an array @matches. now i want to take sessionID's from this array and search for the sessionID in the logfile which AuthMechanism it belongs to.
There are three-four AuthMechanism to which a user can belong.they are--
QnAModule::authenticate
UPAuthModule::authenticate
UPAuthModule::authenticate

On the basis of these mechanisms i need to know the user belongs to which mechanism. This part is very tricky for me and i am stuck here as i am not well wersed with Perl and learning it.
I will upload my logfile. please suggest me to proceed further.
If my questions are not clear to you please let me know i will try to explain them better.Please help me in proceeding further, i am also trying to write it myself.
What i want is what the given user is doing in the session id and the session id is related to which mechanism.

So let say my script takes username as arguememnt, i am able to print all the information that is related to that user with sessionID's. this sessionID is related to diffrent Authentication mechanism mentioned earlier.The user can belong to any or all mechanisms.my basic criteria is that the user belongs to which mechanism and he is doing what(data related to the username in mechanisms)
The output should be like this--
say i gave the input username as 01018603, i will be able to get the output as--
the example belongs to one AuthMechanism ie QnA
Quote:
if [ sessionID_No_Got_from_the_username_list == QnA sessionID ]; then
print all the data inside that sessionID that relates to user with timestamp
print this also
Handle_NSPAdvice:: Handling NSPAdvice for mechanism [2] with time stamp.

Any advice on the script or help will be very greatful.
Thanks
NT

NAME
mupdatetest - interactive MUPDATE test program SYNOPSIS
mupdatetest [ -p port ] [ -m mechanism ] [ -a userid ] [ -u userid ] [ -k num ] [ -l num ] [ -r realm ] [ -f file ] [ -n num ] [ -q ] [ -c ] [ -i ] [ -o option=value ] [ -v ] hostname DESCRIPTION
mupdatetest is a utility that allows you to authenticate to a MUPDATE server and interactively issue commands to it. Once authenticated you may issue any MUPDATE command by simply typing it in. It is capable of multiple SASL authentication mechanisms and handles encryption lay- ers transparently. This utility is often used for testing the operation of a mupdate server. Note that you must be an admin in order to authenticate to an mupdate server. OPTIONS
-p port Port to connect to. If left off this defaults to mupdate as defined in /etc/services. -m mechanism Force mupdatetest to use mechanism for authentication. If not specified the strongest authentication mechanism supported by the server is chosen. -a userid Userid to use for authentication; defaults to the current user. This is the userid whose password or credentials will be presented to the server for verification. -u userid Userid to use for authorization; defaults to the current user. This is the userid whose identity will be assumed after authentica- tion. NOTE: This is only used with SASL mechanisms that allow proxying (e.g. PLAIN, DIGEST-MD5). -k num Minimum protection layer required. -l num Maximum protection layer to use (0=none; 1=integrity; etc). For example if you are using the KERBEROS_V4 authentication mechanism specifying 0 will force mupdatetest to not use any layer and specifying 1 will force it to use the integrity layer. By default the maximum supported protection layer will be used. -r realm Specify the realm to use. Certain authentication mechanisms (e.g. DIGEST-MD5) may require one to specify the realm. -f file Pipe file into connection after authentication. -n num Number of authentication attempts; default = 1. The client will attempt to fast reauth (e.g. DIGEST-MD5), if possible. -q Enable MUPDATE COMPRESSion (before the last authentication attempt). -c Enable challenge prompt callbacks. This will cause the OTP mechanism to ask for the the one-time password instead of the secret pass-phrase (library generates the correct response). -i Don't send an initial client response for SASL mechanisms, even if the protocol supports it. -o option=value Set the SASL option to value. -v Verbose. Print out more information than usual. SEE ALSO
