Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting how to grep the responce on TL1 Post 302568357 by zaxxon on Thursday 27th of October 2011 06:21:41 AM

You already said it yourself: Use grep. The man page reveals -q for quiet mode and if you could send anything else you do not need to > /dev/null 2>&1.
Next you can check what the content of $? is and decide what to do.
This is all you need - there are usually several ways. Just try it out and play around with it. If you get stuck at a specific point, ask again, but do not expect to get a complete solution without showing own effort.
Thanks for your understanding.
