Inserting text into a file but searching for the place to put it!
Hi
I would love a bit of help with a problem im having with a script. I need to insert a line of text which is saved in a variable called $fwInsert into a file whos name is saved in a variable called $server but it needs to be in a certain order.
The file is a forward file for a network and it will look something like this:
Code:
;zone file for test001.btcuk
$TTL 2d
@ IN SOA testserver.servers009.btcuk. root.servers009.btcuk (
2010092401 ; serial number with no of editings
24h ; refresh
5m ; update entry
1w ; expirary
2h ) ; minimum
NS testserver.servers009.btcuk
testmachine1 IN A 192.189.1.1
testmachine2 IN A 192.189.1.2
wibble IN A 192.189.1.42
tesmachineend IN A 192.189.1.255
I need to insert a machine into this file (i have the line of test like this in the variable $fwInsert as mentioned above) so I need to search through the file by ip address, find out where i'm supposed to put it and the paste it. I have tried grep but it error'd saying too many arguments and ive tried sed but it did nothing, no text was inserted but no error either which I suppose is an improvement.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Katie

If an ipaddress is specified then that address is used to limit the actions or output.
rlm_ippool_tool [-a] [-c] [-o] [-v] session-db index-db [ipaddress]
Mark the entry nasIP/nasPort as having ipaddress
rlm_ippool_tool -n session-db index-db ipaddress nasIP nasPort
Update old format database to new.
rlm_ippool_tool -u session-db new-session-db
DESCRIPTION

Or with the -n argument adds a usage entry to the FreeRADIUS ippool databases.

Given the syntax in the FreeRadius radiusd.conf:
ippool myippool {
range-start = 192.0.2.0

[...]
session-db = ${raddbdir}/ip-pool.db
