similar to: awk global replacement only after keyword

Hey guys, Looking through my book and the web and I am not having any success returning data from a search. I need to have awk search for a string and print the first field which is no problem but now its returning two options as the input data has changed. The change is reliable, I only want the first field if it ends in a regex that I have, and I only want what that regex matches to be printed.

I have a command I execute: awk 'BEGIN { ORS=" " } { print "\"" $1 "\"" }' input_file which gives me exactly what I need, all field one's in quotes on one line each separated by one space. I now need to print a single quote around all of this, but the ORS flag is screwing me up, it's causing every attempt I try to repeat for every record.

I am trying to deduce the one liner for an rpm I am packaging to edit a php configuration file from within my spec. The line I am editing looks like: $conf['nagios_base'] = "/nagios/cgi-bin"; What are the escape requirements Perl needs from within the shell to search for this? As I have seen, the syntax is a mess, any pointers would be appreciated! thanks, jlc

Hey guys, I am trying to extract a pattern from a downloaded html file. I only want the first match printed, problem is I don't know how to force sed to exit after printing the first match of a capture group. Anyone know the trick to manipulating {p;q;} to print a capture group? Thanks, jlc

I need to review a logfile with Sed and cut out all the lines that start with a certain word, problem is this word begins after some amount of whitespace and unless I search for whitespace at the beginning followed by "word" I may encounter "word" somewhere legitimately hence why I don't just search for "word" only... Anyone know how to make sed accomplish this?

Trying to rsync a rather large file from a windows server to a centos server and all but this is working fine. As it's a 20 gig file I am trying to send the diff of with a -c, I suspect over the low bandwidth this presents an issue. I also stage this file locally on another centos server and could calc the diff and create a patch and send that, comparing checksums etc... A quick look at

I have been searching the net for directions on rhel and centos 5(1) to log in to a windows domain and have found many examples, all different and none work for me.

For ages I have been keeping docs and notes in Public Folders inside an Exchange server and want to move this out to a more modern facility that allows tagging and searching via a web interface for keywords so I can keep all my notes more organized. Anyone have any personal recos for the slickest system to do this with. Given the nature of my home setup, its routinely used to lab stuff up so I

I need to do some testing with 5.3 as its suggested that 5.4 has "some bugs in the toolchain and libc". That being the case, I can install with a url and repo line pointing to a mirror with 5.3 still but how does one properly make sure during subsequent uses of yum it doesn't attempt to use 5.4 rpms? Is it simple enough to just manually set '$releasever' to 5.3 in the repo

Two quick and simple questions; I want to install the "WinPower" software for my new UPS. On their web site, they have a tar.gz file available for download. I know the reasons for staying with RPM, if at all possible. I''ve Googled and Yahood for ""WinPower"+RPM+Linux and get hits, but no obvious RPM. I tried "yum install winpower" and the response was

I have a user w/o a shell that runs an app as a daemon that needs to use mutt to email an attachment from a script. During testing when the app was ran as root everything worked:) Now that we obviously are running as a user w/o a shell this little bit broke. I used mutt as I needed to send the attachment as mime, and the ability to specify a muttrc from the cli when executed was useful so we
