Hey Guys, I am trying to do some cleanup work on one of my linux systems and am having problems with a script that I am writing.. Hopefully someone here can help me out: ls /home_nfs >> /tmp/users foreach user(`cat /tmp/users`) (echo `grep '/$user:' /home/Home_Script/passwd` | awk -F : '{print $6}' | awk -F / '{print "/"$2"/"$3}' >> /tmp/home_dir) end It looks like the script is failing at the echo `grep '/$user:' /home/Home_Script/passwd` part.. Anyone know what I am doing wrong. What I am trying to achieve is this: I have a file /tmp/users with all usernames and I want to grep for those users names in /etc/passwd and create another directory with just the home dir entries. Any help would be grately appreciated.
