Dear Scrutinizer and MadeInGermany ,

both solutions are working fine for thank you so much.





Thanks rbatte1,

I have tried your approach also, it works fine, but issue is that sed -n "$start_line,$end_line"p $filename is not working
calling variable inside sed is not working, sed -n "3,15"p $filename is working fine but sed -n "$start_line,$end_line"p is not, is there any alternate solution.
As per your suggestion i have tried this

Code:

# input of sample.gmf is like this, without quotes, "DOCSTART_2 |" for start
  #input of sample.gmf is like this, without quotes,"DOCEND |" for end 

# input for third matching pattern is "343"

 
# after grep -n the output is like this "1:DOCSTART_2 |" or "520:DOCEND |"


grep -n "DOCSTART_2" /home/testing/sagar/sample.GMF | awk -F ":" '{print $1}'  >  cat /home/testing/sagar/DOCSTART_2    ## start line numbers for entire file 

grep -n "DOCEND" /home/testing/sagar/sample.GMF | awk -F ":" '{print $1}'  >  cat /home/testing/sagar/DOCEND   ## end line numbers for entire file

input=`grep -n "12345" /home/testing/sagar/sample.GMF | awk -F ":" '{print $1}'`     # matching pattern (343)
  
> /home/clarity/sagar/less_DOCSTART_2
> /home/clarity/sagar/great_DOCEND

for file in `cat /home/testing/sagar/DOCSTART_2`
do
a=`echo $file`
if [ $a -lt $input ]
then
echo $a >> /home/clarity/sagar/less_DOCSTART_2
else
echo hi >> /dev/null
fi
done
 DOCSTART=`sort -n  /home/clarity/sagar/less_DOCSTART_2 | tail -1`  ## greatest start number


 for file1 in `cat /home/clarity/sagar/DOCEND`
do
b=`echo $file1 | awk -F ":" '{print $1}'`
if [ $b -gt $input ]
then
echo $a >> /home/clarity/sagar/great_DOCEND
else
echo hi >> /dev/null
fi
done
DOCEND=`sort -n  /home/clarity/sagar/great_DOCEND | head -1`   ## lowest end number
cat /home/testing/sagar/sample.GMF | sed -n "$DOCSTART,$DOCEND"'p  > /home/testing/sagar/sample.GMF_new   ##### not working

any suggestions or any changes in approach.
Thanks in advance.

sss_useradd

SSS_USERADD(8)							 SSSD Manual pages						    SSS_USERADD(8)

NAME

       sss_useradd - create a new user

SYNOPSIS

       sss_useradd [options] LOGIN

DESCRIPTION

       sss_useradd creates a new user account using the values specified on the command line plus the default values from the system.

OPTIONS

       -u,--uid UID
	   Set the UID of the user to the value of UID. If not given, it is chosen automatically.

       -c,--gecos COMMENT
	   Any text string describing the user. Often used as the field for the user's full name.

       -h,--home HOME_DIR
	   The home directory of the user account. The default is to append the LOGIN name to /home and use that as the home directory. The base
	   that is prepended before LOGIN is tunable with "user_defaults/baseDirectory" setting in sssd.conf.

       -s,--shell SHELL
	   The user's login shell. The default is currently /bin/bash. The default can be changed with "user_defaults/defaultShell" setting in
	   sssd.conf.

       -G,--groups GROUPS
	   A list of existing groups this user is also a member of.

       -m,--create-home
	   Create the user's home directory if it does not exist. The files and directories contained in the skeleton directory (which can be
	   defined with the -k option or in the config file) will be copied to the home directory.

       -M,--no-create-home
	   Do not create the user's home directory. Overrides configuration settings.

       -k,--skel SKELDIR
	   The skeleton directory, which contains files and directories to be copied in the user's home directory, when the home directory is
	   created by sss_useradd.

	   This option is only valid if the -m (or --create-home) option is specified, or creation of home directories is set to TRUE in the
	   configuration.

       -Z,--selinux-user SELINUX_USER
	   The SELinux user for the user's login. If not specified, the system default will be used.

       -h,--help
	   Display help message and exit.

THE LOCAL DOMAIN

       In order to function correctly, a domain with "id_provider=local" must be created and the SSSD must be running.

       The administrator might want to use the SSSD local users instead of traditional UNIX users in cases where the group nesting (see
       sss_groupadd(8)) is needed. The local users are also useful for testing and development of the SSSD without having to deploy a full remote
       server. The sss_user* and sss_group* tools use a local LDB storage to store users and groups.

SEE ALSO

       sss_groupadd(8), sss_groupdel(8), sss_groupshow(8), sss_groupmod(8), sss_userdel(8), sss_usermod(8).
