[Samba] Looking for a script to add/remove multiple shares from smb.conf

[drew.arthur at mail.sprint.com]

I would like to easily add/remove share entries in the smb.conf file 
without removing or deleting lines that are not associated with that 
section. I use SWAT for single shares.  

[xxxuser] 
comment = xxxuser Testing 
path = /samba/xxxuser 
Read Only = NO 

[drew] 
comment = drew's tmp share
path = /tmp 

[testgroup] 
path = /samba/testgroup 
read only = No 

So, if I wanted to remove the [drew] share I guess I would just need to 
remove all lines including [drew] between the ending ] and the next 
beginning [ ? 
 

perl-o-maniacs, awklings, sedoholics.... I'll take what I can get. 

Here is a script that will find the entry "unix" in a file and then 
split the file. I could do something similar but I still end up with the 
remaining lines after "[drew]". 

#!/bin/ksh 
file="file1" 
while read -r xx 
do 
if [ "$xx" = "unix" ] 
then 
file="file2"; 
else 
echo "$xx" >> $file ; 
fi 
done < $1 

Thanks,

Those lesser breeds will simply have to wait their turn.
