Pattern extraction and usage by shell script
Suppose im in a directory A. which has sub-directories x/y/z m/n/p etc. Iam only considered with those which have a file netl.oa at the lowermost level. So i used the find command which gives me a list in the form
Code:
./abc/def/ghi/jkl/netl.oa

and so on
Now i want the names abc def jkl and ghi. My script should goto abc directory and execute a file by giving command dbDump which executes the file dbDump.tdb. Now the contents of dbDump.tdb should be like this (Content of dbDump.tdb file)

Code:
Cellview name 'def' 'ghi' 'jkl'
End Cellview

How do i
1.extract def ghi jki from list
2.place def ghi jkl as shown above
3.save this file with the name dbDump.tdb
4.execute the command dbDump in each directory
I need to write some script for all this work
Guys im new to unix plz plz plz do help me

tdbbackup

TDBBACKUP(8)															      TDBBACKUP(8)

NAME

       tdbbackup - tool for backing up and for validating the integrity of samba .tdb files

SYNOPSIS

       tdbbackup [-ssuffix] [-v] [-h]

DESCRIPTION

       This tool is part of the samba(1) suite.

       tdbbackup is a tool that may be used to backup samba .tdb files. This tool may also be used to verify the integrity of the .tdb files prior
       to samba startup or during normal operation. If it finds file damage and it finds a prior backup the backup file will be restored.

OPTIONS

       -h
	  Get help information.

       -s suffix
	  The -s option allows the adminisistrator to specify a file backup extension. This way it is possible to keep a  history  of  tdb  backup
	  files by using a new suffix for each backup.

       -v
	  The -v will check the database for damages (currupt data) which if detected causes the backup to be restored.

COMMANDS

       GENERAL INFORMATION

       The  tdbbackup  utility	can safely be run at any time. It was designed so that it can be used at any time to validate the integrity of tdb
       files, even during Samba operation. Typical usage for the command will be:

       tdbbackup [-s suffix] *.tdb

       Before restarting samba the following command may be run to validate .tdb files:

       tdbbackup -v [-s suffix] *.tdb

       Samba .tdb files are stored in various locations, be sure to run backup all .tdb file on the system. Important files includes:

       o

	  secrets.tdb - usual location is in the /usr/local/samba/private directory, or on some systems in /etc/samba.

       o

	  passdb.tdb - usual location is in the /usr/local/samba/private directory, or on some systems in /etc/samba.

       o

	  *.tdb located in the /usr/local/samba/var directory or on some systems in the /var/cache or /var/lib/samba directories.

VERSION

       This man page is correct for version 3.0 of the Samba suite.

AUTHOR

       The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed by the  Samba	Team  as  an  Open
       Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed.

       The tdbbackup man page was written by John H Terpstra.
