1.- In first post you paste some text, where do you get it from?
and
2.- What is the content of '@messagefiles' after the glob and '@messages' before the grep?

Regards,
Birei

It is too difficult for me without knowing the content of your input data or to debug all those 'cat' and 'grep' commands. My guess is on next line, where I would try to append the condition 'messages.all' to 'NVRM: Xid'
Code:
print `dnsu grep -ir "NVRM: Xid" /var/log/messages* | grep -v "cat /var/log/messages.all | grep 'NVRM: Xid\n"`;
