Okay, the lack of locking was driving me crazy. Here's my
version:
#!/usr/bin/sh
MYSQL="mysql -v test"
ethernet_address=$1
cat <

ES
($ethernet_address);"
else
echo "UPDATE hardware_assets SET operating_system='10.3.3';"
fi
Where cetechnology is the database. All the variables are set.
When I run this, it starts the mysql client application, with the mysql>
prompt. Nothing is inserted or updated in
idea as to what I need to put in for the comparison?

This is the same problem I had when I tried to do it this way, but I am not
knowledgeable in shell scripting yet to know what I am doing wrong.

I have posted this question a few times, and have not seen the answer
that I need.
I have a
IF works on the selections not on the query.
Select IF(lastname='clark','Correct',''Incorrect'), firstname from
namefile;
You need to do the checking in your script.
For example in bash:
RESULT=`echo "select count(*) from manefile where lastname='clark'" |
mysql database`
if [ "$RESULT" = "0" ]

need.
I have a shell script, that gathers information from systems, and I want
that info to be entered into a database. I want it to check first to see if
the data is already entered, and if not, add it. If it has already
