Try to write clearly...you're hard to understand.

First, I'd start by grep'ing the lines of the input log, to omit the fluff, like the "pi" etc.. Look for "icmp" in this case. That'll leave you with just the lines for the pings. Look at the man page for the uniq command, which should do what you want.

Well, one way would be to do this:

That of course assumes that the reply is always 64 bytes!

[edit]

^^ haha, someone beat me to it!

Keep the ping log as it is for future references.

something like:

head -n 3 filename|tail -n 1|head -c 2

maybe??

E2A: can't figure how to get it into a file though using >

E2A: have now :-) yay!! I like Linux :-)

(head -n 3 filename|tail -n 1|head -c 2)>newfile

(not tested)

Please do not post duplicate threads.

since both had replies, I haved merged them.

Of course it does kind of assume that the size will always be two characters or less. It may be better to use cut -f 1 -d ' ' /etc/hasil.log

And for good measure an awk variant:
That said: having a log in /etc is a VERY STUPID idea.
