Thanks for the suggestion guys.

disedorgue, yeah, I assume I could do it before. In this case, I dont have that option anymore.

Don_Cragun, those options (uid,gid,uname,gname) don't seem to...

OK, so simple question here:

Is there anyway to REMAP, while extracting with tar, specific uid's and gid's on extracted files ?

Don't know which would be faster, but..

Does it have to be strictly sed ?

This awk solution seems to work just ok

echo 'this_string="abc#def#geh" # Comment here' | awk -F'"' '{ gsub("#","_",$2); print sprintf("%s\"%s\"%s",$1,$2,$3) }'

Ok, I got it solved: I just had to include the keyword return.

I might know the answer to this, but I just want to see if any of you know any work arounds before I go and re-write the whole thing.

I have a script as follow:

$ cat testing
#! /usr/bin/ksh
...

But you just said preceding, meaning it will match any up until it finds a " again ;). Also, the g there means 'global', so it will replace every occurance of the matching expression.

The fifth line in aigle's code is missing a ". Also, make sure you're using ksh. (#!/usr/bin/ksh).

just replace < value from query) with the query itself..

update XX_IMPORT_DATA
set file_id=( select max(id) from a )
WHERE FILE_ID IS NULL;

I dont understand the question at all. CURRVAL should have the current value of the sequence, whereas NEXTVAL should have the next value on it. Is that what you mean ?

What database is this ?

If you have an utility to access your db, and this utility returns a scalar result, then you can use that to script. For example, this is with oracle.


# su - oracle...

Model is RT7D50.

I tested my Sun Blade 150 with dell keyboards and it worked just fine.

You could remove leading spaces back down to sqlplus using ... to_char( thenumberhere,'fm0000000' ) ...

Still no luck. :(

Yeah, first thing I did. They both belong to the same group. I believe tops reads /dev/kmem and /dev/mem and both groups are allowed to read these files.

Hi all. Anyone know what permissions or anything is needed to give users the privileges to see top statistics information ? I ask this because I have a user on which I execute top from and display...

From man pages in Tru64:

I just tried vi -c 20 somefile.txt and it went to line 20 of somefile.txt after opening it up.

Thanks RTM. Duh!, I downloaded the binary version and was trying to 'configure' it. dumb me.

Ok, this may be a simple question, but I am unable to find an answer. I am trying to install apache 2.2 on a Solaris 9 box (sparc). I downloaded it from sunfreeware, and under...

Hi. I have a situation here where I need to backup a users' home directory and restore onto another server. The issue here is that both servers have different operating systems and I am looking for...

That was a typo, it is /dev/tape/tape0. When I list the tape contents, it always returns the first 3 files that it tar'ed when using cvf. Please, see the attached file, so you can actually see the...

Thanks Perderabo. I forgot to include my unix version, sorry for that. It is HP Tru-64 v.5.1b. The media we are using is HP's DDS4, I believe it is 40GB compressed and 20gb uncompressed.

What can...

Ok. Apparently, the tar finished. But listing the tape contents only gives me three files, whereas they are more than 30.

Hiyas. Last night I was testing one of our shell script (not made by me) that is having some problems. What it does is that it backups some oracle data to tape and it is failing. I put the commands...
