I am trying to write a script to modify a configuration script for 
the jabber server. I am new to shell scripting and was wondering how 
people would approach the following situations.

1. The host name is configured by the following xml tags

<host><jabberd:cmdline flag="h">localhost</jabberd:cmdline></host>
<update><jabberd:cmdline flag="h">localhost</jabberd:cmdline></update>

What is the best tool for replacing localhost or whatever is between 
the two tags with the contents of the variable $server_name.

2. Similar to the above the server modules are configured using tags 
similar to the following:

<mod_version>./jsm/jsm.so</mod_version>

I need to be able to comment this out using HTML style comments or 
remove the comments depending on what the user requests.

I have another issue that will need addressed later, but for now I am 
looking for advice on tools, useage of the tools and reading material 
to assist me in better understanding how to accomplish this.

Thanks,
Chad
