Hi,

Sorry for my sloppy explanation indeed :-)

I have 1 big input file containing lines starting with a host name.
On every host I want to create a separate file from this input file, but it 
only contains the lines that need to be present on that host. somthing like 
grep $hostname inputfile.txt > outputfile.txt

Regards,
Tom
