Ah. Thanks! :)
Geez! I really need to get my eyes checked! :)

Thanks for the tip too! Really helps!

Hi,

I'm developing a script which will have a lot of options to be checked for and will be setting things / doing further things accordingly.

I'm using a LOT of nested if, elif, else throughout...

Any suggestions on this?

Nope.
It has only a 'search domain.com' and other nameserver lines within it.

Hi folks,

I have a weird problem.

I'm doing guest customization for Linux guests. During this process, I change the hostname, etc. For changing the hostname, I edit the /etc/sysconfig/network...

Sorry I forgot to mention that this would be a dangerous script! :) Thanks for chipping in methyl

Ok. So if an input file looks like this:

Column01 Column02 Column03
Column11 Column12 Column13
Column21 Column22 Column23

Then you have 2 ways of doing this:
1. Do it by reading the file...

You're doing an echo filename here :) you need to do a cat filename.
TABLENAME=`cat $inputFILE | awk '{print $1}'`

Say if the file is something like this:
Table1 Column1
Table2 Column2
Table3...

What is it that you're trying to achieve here? Can you give an example?
You want to search something from the first 2 lines? And also the first column entirely?

You would be better off using awk...

Login as root and do a ps -ef
You could also grep for the specific process that you are looking out for and also directly fetch the PID directly. The second column is usually the PID.

Nope. I don't think that it would mount it as a different filesystem.
When you mount the flash drive, make sure that you're giving the type as ntfs-3g. It's also always good to check if the drive is...

Which shell are you running? Date manipulation is not the easiest thing to do in Unix. There have been multiple posts on this within these forums.

:) you're not doing anything that requires a loop! Remove the while loop and your problems are solved!

The simplest way is to catch the exit code of script B.
Put this line in your 'main' script just after you call script B
#Main Script

EXIT_CODE=`echo $?`
if [ $EXIT_CODE -ne 0 ]
then...

I had mentioned this earlier in my post. To get the individual parts via cut, do the following:

PART_1=`echo $FILE_SHORT_NAME | cut -d'_' -f1`
PART_2=`echo $FILE_SHORT_NAME | cut -d'_' -f2`...

I can think of a quick way to do this via 'cut'.
The first part would be to get rid of the file extension:
FILE_SHORT_NAME=`echo $FILE_NAME | cut -d'.' -f1`

The next would be to split the...

Once you are in the foobar folder, you can use:
pwd | awk '{print $NF}'
to get the folder name. i.e. foobar.

You can apply the same logic to get the '.1' part of the file name.
Once you've got...

For using Kanji characters, I believe that you would need to set PuTTY to UTF-8 first. Open a new PuTTY window, go to the Window -> Translation section and change the character set to UTF-8....

Oh. I should have mentioned it more explicitly.
If you look carefully, the sed quotes that I use are double quotes and not single.
If you want to use variables with sed, you should be using double...

If you have created a file earlier, your output redirector would be something like
echo $birthday >> file

A '>' would wipe out an entire file and create it all over again. A '>>' would append to...

Just use it like:
sed -i "s/$GMAILID/test@gmail.com/" /home/$USER/Desktop/sendmail

Those are some long questions :)
I'll attempt the first. It sounds fairly simple.
You need to get the current time stamp in your initial script and pass that as an argument to your 3 scripts....

Does your Windows box have Japanese fonts enabled? You might want to check that.
Are the characters coming up like rectangular boxes? If thats the case, I guess you need Japanese fonts on your...

I just tried to run the command that you have given.

cat filename | grep ^PenaltyError:= | cut -d '@' -f1 | cut -d ' ' -f8

It runs just fine without any problems. And so does
