Well....first, what is the "r" command supposed to do? OK--I see that it is the function you defined----I wonder if you have to define the function before using it?

Does your system have eth2? (Mine does not.)

Well there are a number of issues, the first being, please use [ code ] [/ code ] tags (without the spaces) so we can read your code.

As for the code:

Quote:
./d.sh: line 5: r: command not found
This error is because shell scripting is a top down language, meaning that up until line 5 the function r has yet to be defined

Second problem, if you are going to use global variable, ie the variable 'n', why bother having separate functions?
Choices are to amalgamate the entire script and define n only once or use the reserved word local to create them so they only exist within each function.

Part two of the second choice is to the call the functions correctly, ie with the passed in values not the global ones. This mean that your r function
would become something like:
Code:
function r{
    ifconfig eth$1
}
[quote]eth2: error fetching interface information: Device not found[/code]
This error is not related to your code but rather that you have no such device called eth2

So it appears you missed the part where I asked you to use the code tags to make your code more readable.

Secondly, are you just throwing command at us so we will fix them for you?

I ask as you have identified that you are being taught, ie this is an assignment, but you are making mistakes that defy any teaching that I can see??

So instead of telling you how, I am going to ask the questions:

Please identify, one at a time, what you think the following lines of code are doing (meant to do according to your mind):

Code:
sysctl kernel.hostname=$i
Code:
if [ y != regex[:digit:] ] ; then
Code:
sed = /etc/resolv.conf | sed [ -e /etc/resolv.conf]
Until we know what you want to do, which cannot be discerned by what we see here, we will not be able to assist.

Every message here can be googled and are stating the exact problems with your code.

Try and do some work.
