I have not written that the solution given is "the useless one", in my post anywhere.

Also there is no error message displayed for the above command. my only intention was to know the exact command ...thats all !!

How do you know that I have not tried enough on this problem...instead of writing a long essay for a particular forumn. please metion the solution if you know. This will save your time as well as mine.

@CarloM,
Here is the file, for Nov 7
Code:
-rw-rw-r--   1 oracle   dba          962 Nov  7 14:54 req.267891147-67891246.log

There are lots of logs for this particular date; lets say between 500-1000 logs. I need a command which filter a particular word from all the logs and give the count as a result.

Regards
Oracle User

NAME
lintian-info - give detailed information about Lintian's error tags SYNOPSIS
lintian-info [log-file...] lintian-info --tags tag ... DESCRIPTION
The lintian-info command parses the output of the lintian command and gives verbose information about the listed Lintian error tags, parses a Lintian override file and gives verbose information about the tags included, or (if given the -t or --tags option) explains a given tag or tags. If no log-file is specified on the command line, this command expects its input on stdin. Thus, the output of lintian can either be piped through lintian-info or a log file produced by lintian can be processed with this command. (Note, though, that the lintian command has a command line option -i to display the same results as lintian-info, so you will not normally need to pipe the output of lintian into this command.) OPTIONS
-a, --annotate Read from standard input or any files specified on the command line and search the input for lines formatted like Lintian override entries. For each one that was found, display verbose information about that tag. -h, --help Display usage information and exit. --profile prof Use the severities from the vendor profile prof when displaying tags. If the profile name does not contain a slash, the default profile for than vendor is chosen. If not specified, lintian-info loads the best profile for the current vendor. Please Refer to the Lintian User Manual for the full documentation of profiles. -t, --tags Rather than treating them as log file names, treat any command-line options as tag names and display the descriptions of each tag. EXIT STATUS
If -t or --tags was given and one or more of the tags specified were unknown, this command returns the exit code 1. Otherwise, it always returns with exit code 0. SEE ALSO
