Re: Dam script will not work - ;^0

Hi Paula,


were you really bored ? that you started writing this script?

anyway i think you should give yourself 10 points for this one ;)

Sure attracted a lot of attention and was the most answered question of the day.

Hey that's an idea. QOTD. whoever asks the QOTD gets 10 points.

Hi Ramesh

No not bored but it has been a ?!"?$ of a day,

It is 21:35 here in London and I should have gone home hours ago.

I have had problems with x25 - which turned out to be a developer?s script -

File disappearing - Universe database indexes

Etc.

I just thought I would post my script before going home and have spent so much time laughing at the replies that I lost track of time.

Madhu I am not sure if you are serious or not?

If you are please look at the other posts to my question.

Sounds like we are hashing old hashes again. Maybe you need to do it in perl.......

Then again, why do it at all??????

Sysadmins are supposed to be lazy and do it the easy way.

Yeah ! Iam serious, Iam trying to solve the problem you have, without cracking jokes.

I have spotted one more problem in your script which is, when you use cat /usr/sysadmin | awk '{ print $3 }', This particular statement returns the third field of all the records in the file /usr/sysadmin which you are trying to compare with "A Lot" and "Not Enough". This comparison will never be successful.

Thanks,
Madhu

Madhu,

This script was not meant as a serious problem! It was just meant to interject a bit of humor into what, at least for the author, was apparently a very bad day.

Paula, I work for a company that does payrolls, and I have the same issue. No matter what income I need, I never get it. Maybe its time for me to move into marketing or sales, as IQ's don't seem to matter in those dept's.
