awk and cat - How to ignore multiple lines?
- by Filipe YaBa Polido
I need to extract Voip log from a D-Link router, so I've setup a little python script that executes a command in this router via telnet.
My script does a "cat /var/log/calls.log" and returns the result, however...
it also sends non-important stuff, like the BusyBox banner, etc...
How can I ignore lines from 1 to 6 and the last 2 ?
This is my current output:
yaba@foobar:/stuff$ python calls.py
BusyBox v1.00 (2009.04.09-11:17+0000) Built-in shell (msh)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
DVA-G3170i/PT # cat /var/call.log
1 ,1294620563,2 ,+351xxx080806 ,xxx530802 ,1 ,3 ,1
DVA-G3170i/PT # exit
And I just need:
1 ,1294620563,2 ,+351xxx080806 ,xxx530802 ,1 ,3 ,1
(it can have multiple lines)
So that I can save it to a CSV and later to a sql db.
Thanks, and sorry my bad english.
