regular expression in ksh
I am trying to test to see if the hostname of the computer I'm on starts with ne1dxdb - it can contain any characters after that. I have the following code, but it's not working - it's not falling into the if statement. Any ideas?
boxname="unknown"
function get_hosttype {
HOSTNAME=`hostname`
if [ ${HOSTNAME} = ne1dxdb* ]
then
export boxname="test"
fi
if [ ${HOSTNAME} = ne1pxdb* ]
then
export boxname="prod"
fi
}
