A bit nicer way - to get rid of empty lines as well, is: egrep -v '^(#|$)' /etc/sysconfig/iptables-config Or: egrep -v "^#" /etc/sysconfig/iptables-config | cat -s to remove multiple blank lines from output. "| less -s" will get the same effect. Cheers, --Amos -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
