@ctsgnb:
$newline loooks like this (if i want to use it):
Code:
2:35 ClientUserinfo: 0 \ip\localhost\name\test\racered\2\raceblue\2\rate\8000\ut_timenudge\0\cg_rgb\255 0 0\funred\gasmask,h_head\funblue\gasmask,h_head\cg_predictitems\0\cg_physics\1\gear\GZAARWA\cl_anonymous\0\sex\male\handicap\100\color2\5\color1\4\team_headmodel\*james\team_model\james\headmodel\sarge\model\sarge\snaps\20\teamtask\0\cl_guid\F6F1365D96239BB0C6BB7CE6A74C064B\weapmodes\00000110220000020002

any other lines dont contain ClientUserinfo

@ Chubler_XL
just misspelling, its "ClientUserinfo"
Somehow it doesnt work, it just reads a few lines, and a few it doesnt. also it doesnt read the whole line, it stops after a few lines.
Code:
tail -n 10 $log | while REPLY=read -r
do
    #is it a line we want to catch??
    if [[ "$REPLY" =~ ClienUserinfo: ]]; then
....

but it didnt work.

@Kurumi i dont get how i should read the variable now. I tried adding "print $s" at the end but it returned the whole last 10 lines.

NAME
shells - shell database SYNOPSIS
/etc/shells DESCRIPTION
The shells file contains a list of the shells on the system. Applications use this file to determine whether a shell is valid. See getuser- shell(3C). For each shell a single line should be present, consisting of the shell's path, relative to root. A hash mark (#) indicates the beginning of a comment; subsequent characters up to the end of the line are not interpreted by the routines which search the file. Blank lines are also ignored. The following default shells are used by utilities: /bin/bash, /bin/csh, /bin/jsh, /bin/ksh, /bin/ksh93, /bin/pfcsh, /bin/pfksh, /bin/pfsh, /bin/sh, /bin/tcsh, /bin/zsh, /sbin/jsh, /sbin/sh, /usr/bin/bash, /usr/bin/csh, /usr/bin/jsh, /usr/bin/ksh, /usr/bin/ksh93, /usr/bin/pfcsh, /usr/bin/pfksh, /usr/bin/pfsh, and /usr/bin/sh, /usr/bin/tcsh, /usr/bin/zsh, and /usr/sfw/bin/zsh. /etc/shells overrides the default list. Invalid shells in /etc/shells could cause unexpected behavior, such as being unable to log in by way of ftp(1). FILES
