If the separator is . then the field (#2) ends at the next . or at the end of the line.
You can do an ERE-search:
Code:
awk -F. '$2 ~ /com|/ {print $0}' aa.sh

or limit the search to the beginning of the field
Code:
awk -F. '$2 ~ /^com\|/ {print $0}' aa.sh

In the latter case I have escaped \| because | is a special ERE character unless at the very beginning or the very end or within [ ].
