Ok I tried that, it seem to have fixed the "s" problem. But now I get
the following:
sed -e '$b /^Target\[[^]]*\][.0-9]*:.*@[0-9.]*$/ {
$!N
s/^\(Target\[[^]]*\][.0-9]*:.*@\)[0-9.]*\nDirectory\[[^]]*\]:\(.*\)$/\1\2.example.com/
P;D
}' text_files/mrtg.cfg > text_files/mrtg.cfg.changed
sed: can't find label for jump to `/^Target\[[^]]*\][.0-9]*:.*@[0-9.]*$/'
Thanks
Dan
