Data how to grep a subdomain
When I try to grep a subdomain having three dots("."), I am getting another fully qualified domain also that looks same as the sub domain but with hyphen("-") in the place of dot(".")

I just need the first result. Please help me...

HTML Code:
grep abcd.efg.xyz.info /etc/named.conf

zone "abcd.efg.xyz.info" {
        file "/var/named/abcd.efg.xyz.info.db";
zone "abcd-efg-xyz.info" {
        file "/var/named/abcd-efg-xyz.info.db";

is there any other way? b'cos I am writing a script to search duplicate zone entries in the named.conf file. The script first makes a list of domains in the zone file and then searches for duplicate entries.

So which part isn't working? You haven't explained why the solutions provided wouldn't work.

I am looking for a solution without editing the domain names. i.e. with out adding "\" in the middle.

because......


The problem is that the '.' is a wild-card in regular expressions and will be interpreted as any possible character. In your case you wanted the dot '.' specifically in which it needed to be escaped.
