Thanks Rajeev,

that helps, but i dont know how to use modules coming with autotest, for
example, i know how to remove file and then regenerate it. .. but how can
i accommodate it with autotest .py file ? for example which functions i
need to call.

and again how i will use modules available with autotest to get nameservers
from resolv.conf and write some regex to verfiy that contents are prefect ?

I am sorry this might be silly question for you but i am bit confused and
not getting start .. may be bcz i am not from programming backgournd :)

do you mind helping to write small example ..

Regards
DJ
