Thanks vbe! Yeah I've the db side covered and can use native tools on the db side (isql, sqlplus, etc to write tsql or pl/sql).
Just looking for thinking-outside-of-the-box when it comes to all these millions of records, analytics, patterns, unatructured text mining, etc
Seems python is a good oop to handle some of this. Finally got my book from the library re python and the day off to read it
SAS Unix handles most of what I need but I just want to make sure I'm not missing something in unix that I've never considered that might be as magic as sas and python. They seem like peas and carrots together!
Happy Friday all!

text : python ipcheck.py --help
Make sure you can write to the current directory for data files and that you always run from the same directory. The first time you run
the script, you will be asked to run with the --makedat option in addition to any other options. This will create the data files for the
hostnames and options your specify on the command line. You should only do this once. Subsequent runs should be made without the --make-
dat option.
For help with different options: python ipcheck.py -h For supported devices listing : python ipcheck.py --devices For long detailed help

Example 1: the external IP is on eth0 of the current machine python ipcheck.py -l -i eth0 username password hostnames
Example 2: you are using the Linksys routing device python ipcheck.py -l -L linksyspassword username password hostnames
Example 3: you want to use web based ip detection python ipcheck.py -l -r checkip.dyndns.org:8245 ...
where ... is your dyndns username password and hostnames. Hostnames should be comma delimited if there are more than one.
