    Hi folks

    Ok heres my issue

    I have a file containing configuration info for 1 node

    I want to make the file so that i can configure 100 such nodes . Nothing changes except the node name

    So if i call the first one "node1", i want to do the second as "node2", third as node3 etc

    Here is the pseudocode

    n=1
    while (n <=100)
    do
    Append the value of n to the value of the node in this file
    n=n+1
    end do

    Is there a handy shell script command to do ? My sed and awk is rusty at best

    Thanks if you can help

    There is a least post on this already. Search the forum you should find it.
