Let's say my original lines are: CN=DATA.OU=XYZ.O=CO CN=DATA.OU=XYY.OU=MEM.O=CO CN=DATA.OU=XZZ.OU=OOP.O=CO

I want them to look like: CN=XYZ_DATA.OU=XYZ.O=CO CN=XYY_DATA.OU=XYY.OU=MEM.O=CO CN=XZZ_DATA.OU=XZZ.OU=OOP.O=CO

So I need to take the data after the FIRST OU and stick in front of DATA with an _ in between. The rest of the line then remains the same.

Hope it makes sense. Appreciate the help!

This should work as long as the first OU always follows CN=DATA.:

sed -e's/DATA.OU=(\w*)/\1_DATA.OU=\1/'
