Hi Jim,
The file which i am trying to sort is a fixed length binary file. Its been created using a structure using C++ programming language.
Regards,
Ambika

Jim,
Also is there any limit on the size of file when we are sorting using UNIX sort. I have observed that sorting a huge file takes lot of time which may not be expected in actual implementation.

Looking for help for sort, I learned that for sorting numbers I use:
sort -n
but it seems that that is not enough when you have numbers like 0.2000E+7 for example, sort -n will not worry about the E+7 part, and will just sort the numbers like 0.2000.

slapo-valsort
SLAPO-VALSORT(5) File Formats Manual SLAPO-VALSORT(5)
NAME
slapo-valsort - Value Sorting overlay to slapd
SYNOPSIS
/etc/openldap/slapd.conf
DESCRIPTION
The Value Sorting overlay can be used with a backend database to sort the values of specific multi-valued attributes within a subtree. The
sorting occurs whenever the attributes are returned in a search response.
Sorting can be specified in ascending or descending order, using either numeric or alphanumeric sort methods. Additionally, a "weighted"
sort can be specified, which uses a numeric weight prepended to the attribute values. The weighted sort is always performed in ascending
order, but may be combined with the other methods for values that all have equal weights. The weight is specified by prepending an integer
weight {<weight>} in front of each value of the attribute for which weighted sorting is desired. This weighting factor is stripped off and
never returned in search results.
CONFIGURATION
These slapd.conf options apply to the Value Sorting overlay. They should appear after the overlay directive.
valsort-attr <attribute> <baseDN> (<sort-method> | weighted [<sort-method>])
Configure a sorting method for the specified attribute in the subtree rooted at baseDN. The sort-method may be one of alpha-ascend,
alpha-descend, numeric-ascend, or numeric-descend. If the special weighted method is specified, a secondary sort-method may also be
specified. It is an error to specify an alphanumeric sort-method for an attribute with Integer or NumericString syntax, and it is an
error to specify a numeric sort-method for an attribute with a syntax other than Integer or NumericString.
EXAMPLES
database bdb
suffix dc=example,dc=com
...
overlay valsort
valsort-attr member ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com alpha-ascend
FILES
/etc/openldap/slapd.conf
