Reading from one file and updating other file with constant entries
Hi All,
Thaks for the help in my last thread. I have one more question. I have two files with ldap entries in it. One file contains all the user LDAP parameter entries (26 MB) and other file contains only the user id's that have to be inactivated. Unix script has to read from the file that has user id information that has to be inactivated and update the main file with constant text. It has to update only those entries that are in the file that has the list of users to inactivate. Below is an example with input files and utput files that I need.
File 1 File 2 Output File
Thanks in advance
