grep problem

[pareshan]

When I grep stdlist with ls -al i got a huge output because I think there are so many logs file linked to some location and which contains name stdlist but just I want is stdlist in the filename in the local server not in the link


here is what i have got and what i want if anyone can help me with this.

i just want all the files which has stdlist name in the current server and i dont care where they have linked to
like i want this
stdlist -> /tlglogs/twsprd82/stdlist
but i dont want this
BLBESLBENREXT_B04022008010078_IND_20080207_231710.log -> /usr/local/TWS/stdlist

you can see stdlist is in the link so its also giving me in the output but i dont want it

this is what i have got
ll|grep stdlist

Hi,

>>>>ll|grep stdlist
Correct me, Is this you want:
ll |grep stdlist |grep -v "^l"

hth

[James R. Ferguson]

Hi:

Instead of using 'grep' you could use 'awk' to match only the firat field:

# ls -al|awk '$9~/stdlist/ {print}'

...matches the nineth field and if it matches "stdlist" the whole line is printed.

Regards!

Nido, thats not giving me any output I dont know why,
ll|grep stdlist|grep -v "^"
it prints nothing

James,

that works when I try that in the local server but when I do in remote server got some error

awk: Quitting
The source line is 1.
uid=388(gc1488) gid=20(users)
syntax error The source line is 1.
The error context is
>>> ~ <<<

Hi,

>>>Nido, thats not giving me any output I dont know why,
ll|grep stdlist|grep -v "^"
it prints nothing <<<<

You have missed the "l" after "^". Correct syntax is,

# ll|grep stdlist|grep -v ^l

Hi

Try to use grep -i option.

Hi (again):

> James, that works when I try that in the local server but when I do in remote server got some error

Try this:

# ssh overthere -n ls -al|awk '$9~/stdlist/ {print}'

...without any additional encapsulating quotes.

Regards!

Simply use a better regexp:
ll -a | grep "stdlist.*->"
