Hi All

I'm struggling a bit here :(

I need a way of joining lines contained in a text file. I've seen numerous SED and AWK examples and none of them seem to be working for me.

The text...

Hi all

Not sure where I should be posting this so apologies if it's in the wrong section.

I'm trying to set up a system where we can copy a file (get) from a Windows server to a Unix server...

I'm lucky as this machine is a VM so I can roll back to a snapshot if it all goes horribly wrong! It's a clone of a physical server which is why I'm trying to manually change all references of the...

Thanks Sanjay. I tried your example but I keep on getting an error saying that my $ORACLE_HOME isn't set (this is an Oracle db and app server).

Weird thing is that I'm executing this as root...

Hi all

I'm in need of a command which can replace a specified string with another string - across multiple files within multiple sub-directories (I intend to run it from / )

I've used the...

Hi All

I'm currently trying to develop a script which will find the child processes of a process ID already passed to the script.

I then need the script to look for spawned processes of these...

Hi Panyam

I don't understand how this could be normal behaviour - I've not specified anywhere in the script that I want the contents of the dir to be printed.

Unfortunately, I'm unable to...

I have a problem with one of my scripts which checks for he status of an Oracle database.

Here's the script:

We're using a JBOD at the moment so it's a raid configuration of sorts.

My colleague is using a program called robocopy (similar to rsync) to get this ever changing data over to...

Hi All

I was wondering how the copying of vast amounts of data affected the overall lifespan of an HDD.

In my example, I'm copying approx 120GB (250,000) of files, once per hour from disk to...

Perfect (I used setenv DISPLAY .... but everything else was fine).

It was those little ` `s - they always catch me out. Thanks!

Hi All

I'm attempting to automate the process of setting the DISPLAY environment variable when logging on (sourcing the .cshrc).

I have a mixture of linux and solaris servers and this...

Hi

I've only been using Unix for a few weeks but am really impressed with its capabilities and ease of use.

I am, however, struggling with a shell script at the moment.

I would like...
