Re: [ILUG-BOM] Search in a file

I then need to store the date value "24-07.2001" in a variable. Which language you are using? I assume Perl, because this is much simpler in Perl. 1. Open the file for reading. 2. Search for the above string by reading every line. $_ variable contains the current line. You can do this by using pattern searching operations in Perl. 3. Once you find the above line then split that line at spaces and collect the required date in a variable. Here is the code which I would prefer to write. open(RH,"</root/sandeep/log111.txt"); while(<RH>) { if($_ =~ /##Date/) { $flag = 1; } else { $flag = 0; } if($flag eq 1) { ($str1, $str2) = split(/ /, $_); $date = $str2; } } Hope this is very much clear.

Windows/Linux IP forwarding?
by Satya 22 Dec '01

22 Dec '01

Here's the situation: Net DSL Windowsbox LAN(dhcp) Linuxbox The LAN, naturally, has a 192.168.0.0 range of IPs (I think it's a class C). The DSL modem is connected to the Winbox on USB and the LAN is a 5-port hub supporting a windows network, with my Linux box (say hello to gort, folks) creeping in using dhcpd. The Linux box, and any box on the LAN, can access everything. I think the Net cannot access anything but the Windows box on the DSL modem (see <http://gort.cjb.net/>. That's the Winbox.). Now I need POP3 (and HTTP et al, if possible) access to the Linux box from the outside world. IP forwarding is enabled on the Winbox. What do I do now? PS: Can I get a static IP on the internal network with minimal changes to the other boxen? -- Satya. <URL:http://satya.virtualave.net/> US-bound grad students!

Problems with X (SiS 6215c and Sampo Monitor on SuSE 7.1)
by Kinjal Sonpal 07 Sep '01

07 Sep '01

Hi Luggers! One of my friends has SiS6215c Display Card with 2mb VRAM. He recently installed SuSE 7.1 in his machine. The monitor is Sampo AlphascanSV. The problem is that, the display card is not being detected. Hence he's not being able to run X. When he tried to run SaX, the SuSE X configurator, not even the initial screen comes up. Entire screen looks very garbled and after some time SaX exits. We tried xf86config, but we did not get any near as my freind has misplaced all of the Manuals and docs. We also tried our hands during installation, but that too went in vain. Anyone having similar configuration, please help. I think there was a patch available for the display card, but I cud not find on the net. TIA. Warm Regards, $ sonpal -kj _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I need a quick list of linux packages that would attract an engineering crowd - professors as well as students. Send this to me privately. Also, if anyone writes/sells bootROM for 16bit/32 bit network cards, for booting diskless machines, contact me with details.

Hi, Anybody installed GNU/Linux computers with M2/Cyrix/AMD cpu. Have you encountered any problems. A friend of mine has a M2 system and wants to install gnu/linux on it and wanted to know if there are any known problems since these are not Intel chips. I plan to do a course in c, c++ and unix. Any good institutes that you know of. I stay at borivili and work at nariman point and am looking towards an institute in the western suburbs. Also, any good books you recommend. Regards, Noel.
