Code:
root@isau02:/data/tmp/testfeld> cat text
toto
tata
titi
root@isau02:/data/tmp/testfeld> cat infile
## Traitement des logs HTTP (HTTP uniquement)
#
#
## Purge des fichiers logs (Tout type de serveurs)
#
#
############################### PARTIE DES EXPLOIT
root@isau02:/data/tmp/testfeld> awk 'NR==FNR { _[$1]=$1; next} /EXPLOIT/ {x=$0; for (e in _) {print _[e]} } {print}' text infile
## Traitement des logs HTTP (HTTP uniquement)
#
#
## Purge des fichiers logs (Tout type de serveurs)
#
#
tata
toto
titi
############################### PARTIE DES EXPLOIT

Edit:
Another way:
Code:
awk '/EXPLOIT/ {x=$0; while ( getline < "text" ) {print} print x } {print}' infile| sed '$d'

Though the sed in the end is not pretty Smilie

Or:

Code:
awk '/EXPLOIT/ {                                                                            
  while ((getline _ < "include") > 0)
    print _
}1' infile

hi

i use with success the following command line :
awk -F [§] 'NR==FNR { filein[$1]=$1; next} /Audit du serveur/ {x=$0; for (e in filein) {print filein[e]} } {print}' /inputtext /inputfile > /ouputfile

but with the following text to insert :
# test insert
0,30 8-17 * * 1-5 . ~/.profile > /dev/null 2>&1;
#
#

i got :

0,30 8-17 * * 1-5 . ~/.profile > /dev/null 2>&1;
# test insert
#

the lines are not in the good order and one line with "#" is suppressed.

thanks
Christian
