-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm quite new to Bash scripting, and just need a little pointer on how to go through a file, and execute commands there in until the end of the file is reached. The idea is this, a list of iptables rules is downloaded, they are run through a set of commands to get the file in a state ready to run. I need to read each line of that file, and execute each one. I'm not sure on loops in bash, and hope someone can help... :) I download this file: http://www.okean.com/antispam/iptables/rc.firewall.china Then run it through this to sanitize it sed 's/--dport 25//g' rc.firewall.china|cat|grep "^[ ]*iptables" > rc.firewall.china_mod Now, how do I loop through that file executing each line in a for while loop? - -- Michael http://maverickapollo.wordpress.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJLvfD5AAoJEEcwpNahApVBDB0IAICTmuZu16K/1P14lUeG4NKP Sg07LgM1qYW3JLDjVrBnfJ8CE7qtmTwx4GB6WjiNthbJ1LLDmOyg8tQ11sgYKG7E grOSSSKXXy37bKV4UtPStQgkTUu4UVGNjd6L7/8KlG0YLk9jgSbcSzO0svke/9eP oYgiz4brRm+MAtHVDDefqrKfJe2bO9B8F1WXRJqDLMIlvHJAP2Rvc36xdGOlAtRT WS8UVrso2yLjAAm2QK2P3gVvPBe6YlC+1buLyb2/kyRngg9FIZbq6pP8QevwHK6T 8yoWKecPTlrom8xU+1Gj3njcUOqwBDvpv4Rc2WQAw+adnPTU9XwgN/jMb17A4Mc= =pjO5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
