Many thanks to Michael DeSimone, James Noyes, Angelos Kanellopoulos, Simon Burr, and Nathan Dietsch. James pointed out that I was missing the 'mv inetd.conf.new inetd.conf' line in the code: awk "(\$1 == \"$svc\") { \$1 = \"#\" \$1 }; {print}" \ inetd.conf >inetd.conf.new mv inetd.conf.new inetd.conf done Also, it was pointed out by Simon that I could use sed for much the same thing as follows: sed "s/^\\(${svc}[ ].*\\)/#\1/" inetd.conf > inetd.conf.new Michael mentioned that I could just comment out everything using vi as follows: :%s/^/#/g wq! Nathan and Angelos mentioned using JASS, which is not an option for me at this time. Thanks again, and have a great Memorial Day!
