When I use the below awk to count the unique lines in $4 for the input it seems to work. The answer is 3 because $4 is only unique 3 times in all the entries. However, when I use the same on actual data I get 56,536 and I know the answer should be 56,548. My question is there a better way to count the unique lines? Thank you .

I would like to print unique lines without sort or unique. Unfortunately the server I am working on does not have sort or unique. I have not been able to contact the administrator of the server to ask him to add it for several weeks. (7 Replies)
