I seem to be running in circles any help would be nice

Code:

bash$rootftp on

Code:

#!/bin/bash -x

#work directory
wdir="/home/web_users/test"

#temp directory
tmpd="tmp"

#original file
file="myfile"

word="RootLogin off"

word2="RootLogin on"

#temp file
tfile="myfile1.txt"

  on=1
 off=1
   if [ $on = 1 ]; then
        cp $wdir/$file $tmpd
        sleep 1
        sed -e \"s/$word/$word2/\" $file > $tmpd/$tfile
        sleep 1
        mv -f $tmpd/$tfile $wdir/$file
        ## clean the tmp dir
        rm -f $tmpd/$file


    elif [ $on = no ]; then
         cp $wdir/$file $tmpd
         sleep 1
          sed -e \"s/$word2/$word/\" $file > $tmpd/$tfile
         sleep 1
         mv -f $tmpd/$tfile $wdir/$file
         ## clean the tmp dir
         rm -f $tmpd/$file


     else
      echo "you must enter either on or off"
   fi
 done

results in this

Code:

-bash-2.05b$ ./on on
+ wdir=/home/httpd/web_users/test
+ tmpd=/home/httpd/web_users/test/tmp
+ file=myfile
+ word=RootLogin off
+ word2=RootLogin on
+ tfile=myfile1.txt
+ on=1
+ '[' 1 = 1 ']'
+ cp /home/httpd/web_users/test/myfile tmp
+ sleep 1
+ sed -e '"s/RootLogin' off/RootLogin 'on/"' myfile
sed: -e expression #1, char 1: Unknown command: `"'
+ sleep 1
+ mv -f /home/httpd/web_users/test/tmp/myfile1.txt /home/web_users/test/myfile
+ rm -f /home/httpd/web_users/test/tmp/myfile
