Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting How to do I manipulate a variable in a do loop? Post 302935875 by ditnl555v on Thursday 19th of February 2015 06:26:26 PM

The file that is read is outputted from another script in the format . . .

hostname,IP

e.g.
Code:
HOSTNAMEXXX1,168.192.100.150
HOSTNAMEXXX2,168.192.100.151
HOSTNAMEXXX3,168.192.100.152

The hostname and IP is on the same line separated by a comma. The hostname is 12 characters long and then a comma and the IP thus the cut -c14-28 which gives only the IP. The list of hostnames and IP combination can be any length. I then want to cut the IP alone and ping each one.
