host2 IN A 10.10.104.2
host8 IN A 10.10.12.8
host5 IN A 10.10.18.9

Code:
fqdn_hosts=list.txt
named_hosts=infra.hosts

for line in `cat $fqdn_hosts`
do
        for line2 in `cat $named_hosts`
        do
                if $line -eq $line2 | awk -F: '{print $1}'
                then
                        echo $line   '$line2 | awk -F: '{print $4}''
