I have a large file that has a line like:
bindaddr=0.0.0.0 ; some other text
I want to replace the 0.0.0.0 with my address 192.168.1.8 and remove everything else on the line to get:
bindaddr=192.168.1.8
How can I do that?
Thanks,
jerry
I finally found a way to do it with sed. Which is what I tried first but I did not have the . before the $
sed "s/bindaddr=.*/bindaddr=192.168.1.8/"
sorry to have taken tracffic.
