just playing around a little I find that IFS will work like so: IFS=$'\n' for i in `cat list.txt` do echo "" echo "$i" done Always fun to learn somthing as it is too easy to stick with what you know. As always we thank you for your support Doug

Phv, Your solution is one I had not considered as I used grep in my original solution. Although looking at my code, i can see you use for future updates of this script. Sambones, I played with the IFS variable for my own leaning and found it difficult to wield the results I had expected. I...

I have been writing a large script with many functions inside it. At one point I had need to capture some text data and print to the screen. I was surprised by the results I got and after some research time decided to change tactics. Meaning I used another method to get the results I need...

sounds like a couple of issues going on here. 1. Use Sympoly's suggestion and put a static IP 2. In your network router take that static IP out of rotation, so another machine cannot try to access it. 3. Now you have full control thru the router to open ports to the outside internet for this...

I am fairly new to Tivoli other than assisting with troubleshooting if it is running. All of the servers I manage are running Websphere 6.x on Linux servers. NDM/APP/WEB tier's I did take the advice of contacting a Tivoli team here at American express and they sent me multiple spread sheets...

I have been tasked with a project to gather the rules set for Tivoli on many servers in our portfolio. I do not have ready access to the Tivoli team whom I am sure could get this info with ease. I do have full access to the Linux servers running tivoli. Is there a flat file or command I can...

Well now I have had a couple of days away from this place to cool down and think this threw a bit better. With some input from others it does make sense for me to act in the way I always have with this company, with integrity and honesty. As of today I have sent my Contracting company my...

kmcferrin, Well I guess you could say I have had better days to think and certainly this is not my shining hour. Hindsight being what it is I should never have gotten into this situation. I do however like your thinking, seem a lot more level headed for future plans. Time to own up and bow...

I have a dilemma I would love to see some discussions on. I have been working as a contractor for 10 years for a large company; I will just pick three random letters for the name,,,, ibbm. I have had what could best be described as the ultimate job ever. It was work at home, paid well, ample...

Wow, I think you hit it on the head. Sometimes seemingly trying to save ,time/money/learningcurve/etc, is not always what it seems. I am downloading Fedora 7 live CD, I will play around with it. Your insight is usefull and I will take a look at the other forum for increasing my own knowledge...

Well, let see, first I re-installed without choosing MBR and choosing /dev/hda to install grub. That gave me error as above. Next I reinstalled with MBR choice. Same error. thedaver, you bring up a very good point. I have challenaged myself to figure this out, but alas seems like I am running...

OK, next update. put 80 GB WD drive in case. only HD in case. complete install of RH linux when it finished and attempted to boot from HD got error something like, no boot disk, please insert and reboot. So next. Put a floppy drive in the case. boot from CD to linux rescue chroot /mnt/sysimage...

OK, a friend just brought over a different hd. 80GB WD gonna try to reload, NO MBR this time. Wish me luck As always we thank you for your support Doug

device.map has fd0 /dev/fd0 hd0 /dev/hda mount command put an unexpected output because I am using "linux rescue" but when I chroot to /mnt/sysimage it looks fine. the locate command does not have DB setup and wont work. Ok right on the verge of spending some precious money. Yes I could go...

All great questions, let me take a shot at them. Forgive my lack of knowlege if it shows. I work with SUNOS at work a lot, but not on the hardware side much. 1- Why do you want RH 7.2 innstaled, it's ca. 7 years old? Well basically I am cheap (read broke), I have this RH package on the...
