Lo all, I need some quick help with a regex match... Mainly because of the fact that the output between RH and FreeBSD is different for a command.... My output: root@netsphere:/# /usr/bin/host -t soa abc.com 192.168.1.1 Using domain server 192.168.1.1: abc.com start of authority ns01.blah some.email( 2003041901 ;serial (version) 10800 ;refresh period 3600 ;retry refresh this often 604800 ;expiration period 10800 ;minimum TTL ) the function: function DigSerial($server,$zone) { global $config; $result = $config->binhost -t soa '$zone' '$server'; if(ereg("try again",$result)) { return $result; } else { preg_match("/.*SOA [^\s\t]+ [^\s\t]+ ([^\s\t]+)/",$result,$serial); if($serial[1]) { return $serial[1]; } else { return 'not available'; } } } Now, on RH, the function will work, seeing that RH's host -t returns the SOA in one line... FreeBSD however doesn't... Any good regex's around for this? I only need the serial number... Just the numbers. -- me
