Using xargs for multiple functions

Hi Experts,

I am trying to parse some syslog outputs into a separate file per node using the below syntax but am having issues when it comes to my Xargs statements.

The command which I was intending on using was:

Code:
cat syslogs | nawk '/From/ { print $3 }' | uniq | xargs -I {} grep {} syslogs >> {}

Instead of grepping and dumping all the per node outputs into separate files its dumping all the outputs into one file.

What adjustments do I need to make to the xargs statement here to get this working.

Kind Regards,

K

cs_parse_string(3)						      cs/cs.h							cs_parse_string(3)

NAME
cs_parse_string - parse a CS template string SYNOPSIS
#include <cs/cs.h> NEOERR *cs_parse_string (CSPARSE *parse, char *buf, size_t blen); ARGUMENTS
parse - a CSPARSE structure created with cs_init buf - the string to parse. Embedded NULLs are not currently supported blen - the length of the string DESCRIPTION
cs_parse_string parses a string. The string is modified, and internal references are kept by the parse tree. For this reason, ownership of the string is transfered to the CS system, and the string will be free'd when cs_destroy() is called. The parse information will be appended to the current parse tree. During parse, the only HDF variables which are evaluated are those used in evar or include statements. RETURN VALUE
None SEE ALSO
