thats brilliant thanks Scott. just one thing, which i guess will be down to escaping or quoting once again, but if i populate a variable with the results, it still grabs the "Product Serial : "part ?, for example


Code:
# ssh server1 "ipmitool fru | gawk '!NF{f=0}/mb.net0.fru/{f=1}/Product.Serial/&&f{print \$NF}' "
00:AA:4F:A6:A6:C4

PerfectSmilie

but if i poulate a variable

Code:
# MAC=`ssh server1 "ipmitool fru | gawk '!NF{f=0}/mb.net0.fru/{f=1}/Product.Serial/&&f{print \$NF}' "`
# echo $MAC
Product Serial : 00:AA:4F:A6:A6:C4

am i doing something glaringly wrong

NAME
igawk - gawk with include files SYNOPSIS
igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ... igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ... DESCRIPTION
Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include files'' to gawk(1). AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in addition, you may have lines like @include getopt.awk in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path. OPTIONS
See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports. EXAMPLES
cat << EOF > test.awk @include getopt.awk BEGIN { while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1) ... } EOF igawk -f test.awk SEE ALSO
