I apologize to everyone helping out here, I posted such a bad sample of what I'm actually doing. Anyway this one below is much closer to what I'm actually doing.

Code:
RHEL:syslogd:"sed -i 's/^syslogd.*$/&\n*ACTION \/etc\/init.d\/syslog start/' $CFG_DIR/ps_mon.cfg"
RHEL:ntpd:"sed -i 's/^ntpd.*$/&\n*ACTION \/etc\/init.d\/ntpd start/' $CFG_DIR/ps_mon.cfg"
RHEL:scopeux:"sed -i 's/^scopeux.*$/&\n*ACTION \/opt\/perf\/bin\/ovpa start all/' $CFG_DIR/ps_mon.cfg"

SUSE:cron:"sed -i 's/^cron.*$/&\n*ACTION \/etc\/init.d\/cron start/' $CFG_DIR/ps_mon.cfg"
SUSE:scopeux:"sed -i 's/^scopeux.*$/&\n*ACTION \/opt\/perf\/bin\/ovpa start all/' $CFG_DIR/ps_mon.cfg"
SUSE:midaemon:"sed -i 's/^midaemon.*$/&\n*ACTION \/opt\/perf\/bin\/ovpa start all/' $CFG_DIR/ps_mon.cfg"

HP-UX:scopeux:"find $CFG_DIR -name "ps_mon.cfg" | while IFS= read -r file; do sed 's/^scopeux.*$/&@*ACTION \/opt\/perf\/bin\/ovpa start all/' "$file" | tr '@' '\n' > tmp && mv tmp "$file"; done"
HP-UX:midaemon:"find $CFG_DIR -name "ps_mon.cfg" | while IFS= read -r file; do sed 's/^midaemon.*$/&@*ACTION \/opt\/perf\/bin\/ovpa start all/' "$file" | tr '@' '\n' > tmp && mv tmp "$file"; done"
HP-UX:perfalarm:"find $CFG_DIR -name "ps_mon.cfg" | while IFS= read -r file; do sed 's/^perfalarm.*$/&@*ACTION \/opt\/perf\/bin\/ovpa start all/' "$file" | tr '@' '\n' > tmp && mv tmp "$file"; done"

I've just found a way on how to deal with \n special character in HP-UX thus the above. Anyway, I replaced the delimiters with ":" because spaces inside the commands in quotes are problematic. When I try the code below in HP-UX:

Code:
for line in `cat sample.ctl`
do
echo $line
done

I get the output below:

Code:
HP-UX:scopeux:"find
$CFG_DIR
-name
"ps_mon.cfg"
|
while
IFS=
read
-r
file;
do
sed
's/^scopeux.*$/&@*ACTION
\/opt\/perf\/bin\/ovpa
start
all/'
"$file"
|
tr
'@'
'
'
>
tmp
&&
mv
tmp
"$file";
done"

That's why I can't use awk to assign variables. The only way I've seen so far to solve this is to replace the spaces with another character, like a comma, then remove the comma with sed substitution when I assign the command on a variable. Too much of a hassle. If you have a way to simplify this, please let me know.

Thanks for the help so far.

heimdal_debug

heimdal_debug(5)					      BSD File Formats Manual						  heimdal_debug(5)

NAME

     heimdal_debug -- how to turn on/off debugging for Kerberos tools

DESCRIPTION

     The heimdal_debug kerberos frameworks have several knobs for controlling logging.	The different framework knobs are:

     libkrb
	  The Kerberos library, some gss-api Kerberos output ends up here too

     kcm  the kcm library (credentials cache, ntlm client)

     kdc  the kerberos KDC output

     digest-service
	  the digest service (ntlm server)

CONFIGURATION FILE

	  [logging]
		  <subsystem> = 0-/SYSLOG:
     and watch syslog for logging information.

APPLE MAC OS X

     First turn up syslog debugging
	   sudo syslog -c 0 -d
     then you can see the syslog output in Console.app or by running
	   syslog -w -k org.h5l.asl
     To enable more extensive debugging logging for each subsystem, use the following commands:

	   Kerberos Library
		sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Kerberos logging -dict-add krb5 '0-/ASL:'

	   digest-server
		sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Kerberos logging -dict-add digest-service '0-/ASL:'

	   kcm	sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Kerberos logging -dict-add kcm '0-/ASL:'

	   kdc	sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Kerberos logging -dict-add kdc '0-/ASL:'

	   MIT Kerberos Shim
		defaults write com.apple.MITKerberosShim EnableDebugging -bool true

	   GSS-API framework logging
		sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.GSS DebugLevel -int 10

Other options on Mac OS X
	  Make the admin API pretend to the server even on client
	       sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Kerberos ForceHeimODServerMode -bool true
