According to the standards, the command:
sorts lines in file into increasing order evaluating field 2 and all fields following it as numeric values and if fields 2 to the end of the line compare equal to another line it then compares field 3 and all fields following it as numeric values and if two lines still compare as equal it then compares the entire line as a string of bytes to determine which line will come first.
sorts lines in file into increasing order evaluating the 2nd and 3rd fields as numeric values and if the numeric values of those two fields are the same when comparing two lines the entire line will be compared as a string of bytes to determine which line will come first.
If what you are trying to do is sort numeric values in fields 2 and 3 in file and only keep one line in cases when there are multiple lines with identical numeric values in those two fields, you would want to use:
if field 2 is your primary sort key and field 3 is your secondary key or:
if field 3 is your primary sort key and field 2 is your secondary key.

Hi,
I am using some codes that have been ported from unix to linux, and now the sorting no longer results in the desired ordering. I'm hoping to find a way to mimic the unix sort command in linux. The input file is structured the following:

net::ldap::control::sort
Net::LDAP::Control::Sort(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Net::LDAP::Control::Sort(3)NAME
Net::LDAP::Control::Sort - Server Side Sort (SSS) control object
SYNOPSIS
use Net::LDAP::Control::Sort;
use Net::LDAP::Constant qw(LDAP_CONTROL_SORTRESULT);
$sort = Net::LDAP::Control::Sort->new(
order => "cn -phone"
);
$mesg = $ldap->search( @args, control => [ $sort ]);
($resp) = $mesg->control( LDAP_CONTROL_SORTRESULT );
print "Results are sorted
" if $resp and !$resp->result;
DESCRIPTION
"Net::LDAP::Control::Sort" is a sub-class of Net::LDAP::Control. It provides a class for manipulating the LDAP Server Side Sort (SSS)
request control 1.2.840.113556.1.4.473 as defined in RFC-2891
If the server supports sorting, then the response from a search operation will include a sort result control. This control is handled by
Net::LDAP::Control::SortResult.
CONSTRUCTOR ARGUMENTS
order
A string which defines how entries may be sorted. It consists of multiple directives, spearated by whitespace. Each directive describes
how to sort entries using a single attribute. If two entries have identical attributes, then the next directive in the list is used.
Each directive specifies a sorting order as follows
-attributeType:orderingRule
The leading "-" is optional, and if present indicates that the sorting order should be reversed. "attributeType" is the attribute name
to sort by. "orderingRule" is optional and indicates the rule to use for the sort and should be valid for the given "attributeType".
Any one attributeType should only appear once in the sorting list.
Examples
"cn" sort by cn using the default ordering rule for the cn attribute
"-cn" sort by cn using the reverse of the default ordering rule
"age cn" sort by age first, then by cn using the default ordering rules
"cn:1.2.3.4" sort by cn using the ordering rule defined as 1.2.3.4
METHODS
As with Net::LDAP::Control each constructor argument described above is also available as a method on the object which will return the
current value for the attribute if called without an argument, and set a new value for the attribute if called with an argument.
