HI, I have a script attached in this mail which reads the output of rpcinfo and tokenizes its outputs. This problem is similar to my earlier posting a few days ago. However, in this scenario, the some outputs of rpcinfo response i.e. "rpcinfo: RPC: Timed out program 1073741825 version 1 is not available" overflowed to the next line. Those rpcinfo response outputs which did not overflow to the next lines are shown below e.g "program 100002 version 2 ready and waiting".
# cat weird RPC PING pgadm1 program vers proto port service response 100002 2 udp 55733 rusersd program 100002 version 2 ready and waiting 100008 1 udp 55734 walld program 100008 version 1 ready and waiting 1073741825 1 udp 64018 rpcinfo: RPC: Timed out program 1073741825 version 1 is not available 100003 2 udp 55733 sprayd program 100003 version 2 ready and waiting I would like to ignore those "overflowing" outputs whenever the response does not have the status "ready and waiting". i.e. I would just like to obtain the line: rpcinfo:RPC:Timed out, and ignore the next line "program 1073741825 version 1 is not available". Hence, I tried inserting a check in the script as below. It tries ignoring the next line which does not begin with a digit. All rpcinfo outputs produces the program number at the beginning i.e. digits. while(<INPUT>){ print "Here ...\n"; next if(/^RPC/); next if(/^program/); next if(/(ready and waiting)$/); $_=~m/^(\d+)\s+(\d+)\s+(\w+)\s+(\d+)\s+(\w+)[\s\:]+(.*)$/; next if(/^\w+/); [CHECK INSERTED HERE] print "prog no = $1\n"; print "version = $2\n"; ................... } However, the output produced is shown below: % ./file-3a.pl /home/weird opened successfully Here ... Here ... Here ... Here ... prog no = version = protocol= port = service = response = The expected output, assuming everything is correct, would have a mail generated with the format below: Date: Tue, 10 Jun 2003 18:48:28 +0800 (MAL) From: ASEC - Leaw Chern Jian <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RPCPING OUTPUT PROG NO VER PROTO PORT RESPONSE 1073741825 1 udp 64018 rpcinfo: RPC: Timed out Could anyone show me where did I go wrong and the method to resolve this problem? ALSO, I would like to know the way which I could write the script to check if there're completely no rows in the file which contains "ready and waiting" , hence no mail should be generated. Could someone also show me how could such checks be incorporated into my current script? Thanks <<file-3a.ZIP>>
