Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi,

I am trying to write a script which would go search and get the info from the logs based on START and END timestamps. The log file format is as follows

255.45.250.227 - Unauth [05/Aug/2008:20:45:05 -0400] "GET HTTPS://relia.stage.tata.com/include...Javascript.jsp HTTP/2.2" 200 46850
255.45.250.227 - Unauth [05/Aug/2008:20:48:05 -0400] "GET HTTPS://relia.stage.tata.com/un/js/browsercheck.js HTTP/2.2" 504 0
244.258.27.225 - airtel1@tata.net [05/Aug/2008:20:50:05 -0400] "GET HTTPS://test-Sky.stage.tata.com/stat...m_writeHTML.js HTTP/2.2" 200 2702
255.45.250.227 - Unauth [05/Aug/2008:20:52:05 -0400] "GET HTTPS://relia.stage.tata.com/un/js/general.js HTTP/2.2" 504 0
255.45.250.227 - Unauth [05/Aug/2008:20:55:04 -0400] "GET HTTPS://relia.stage.tata.com/un/js/lsgeneralScripts.js HTTP/2.2" 504 0


echo -n "3a. Timestamp start = "
read time_st
echo -n "3b. Timestamp end = "
read time_en

----
3a. Timestamp start = 05/Aug/2008:20:45:05
3b. Timestamp end = 05/Aug/2008:20:55:04
----

The timestamp format in the logs is as follows 05/Aug/2008:20:55:04.


Thank you

Since this post here, and
https://www.unix.com/shell-programmin...#post302221963

look VERY similar, it appears that this is homework.
That is not allowed under forum rules.

Explain if otherwise.

I figured out the first two parts and this is the part I wasnt able to figure out and I apologize but would like to say this is not homework.

Thanks
