Grep - Searching for multiple items using one command
I am performing a regular check on UNIX servers which involves logging onto UNIX servers and using the grep command to check if a GID exists in the /etc/group directory

e.g. grep 12345 /etc/group

I have five to check on each server, is there anyway I can incorporate them into one command and get an output if the group exists.

e.g. The GIDs are 12345 54321 56789 98765 12986

       `MEMCACHED_SERVERS`

       If you do not specify either these, the final value in the command line list is the name of a server(s).
