Hi, I was wondering if there is anybody who can show me the *correct* way to use a fast pattern-search-and-assign.
I mean: I am extracting viertual aliases from a postfix config file: # cannot use 'split' function, some statements in the second field may contain whitespaces (e.g. ERROR "blah blah") my ($virtual, $address) = ($_ =~ /^([^\s]+) (.*)$/); but I always get: "Use of uninitialized value in printf at ./extract_users_virtusertable.pl line 16" even if I try using the slow approach (extract, then assign using $1 and $2), it doesn't work. What's wrong? TIA ----------------------------- Mariano Cunietti System Administrator Enter S.r.l.
