Look carefully at the second input file:
Server valuable1
Client valuable2
Now look *very* carefully at the output you want:
Server file1
Client abc12
Server foot1
Client cba11
Server boby
Client def123
Can you imagine a *loop* which reads the input file and creates the
second? In `pseudo-code' this would be something like:
for each pair of (server, client) from `file1':
for each line in `file2':
substitute `server' and `client' in `line'
print resulting line
print an empty line
That shouldn't be *too* hard to write in a shell script. Now that you
have the outline, see if you have better luck.
