Displaying a field completely
Version: AIX 6.1 (korn shell)

In the below output, the field with the heading 'Address' has some names like
HTML Code:
hwproc214-priv1.gnas.wrd.net
which are only partially displayed.

HTML Code:
$ netstat -i
Name  Mtu   Network     Address           Ipkts Ierrs    Opkts Oerrs  Coll

HTML Code:
$ netstat -i| cut -d: -f4
But it just gave the same output as above. I want the 'Adress' field (fourth one) to be displayed completely. How can I do this?

Have you tried:
Code:
netstat -i | awk '{print $4}'

Start with:
Code:
netstat -in | awk '{print $4}' | grep -v "Address"

Then look up the full name of those which are IP addresses (not MAC addresses) in /etc/hosts or DNS according to where netstat finds the name on your computer.
