I have a script that I used for many years as a tools for migration, installation and configuration in Linux and FreeBSD. I love my little script. It will read my input file, count the number of lines, read the lines one by one, cut the line and put it into input that I want. Echo it back into template that I've define and loop and loop until end of the lines.
That's my little shell script.
Quote is my shell script is a migration script of vpopmail passwd file into Linux passwd/shadow format so I can run migration tools from padl nss_ldap to create LDIF format (PosixAccount) that suitable to be used with
DBmail.
But, Bro root script much more simpler that this and one liner if it can be. Hehehe.
