<div>Hi Wayne,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I will try as best to explain what I need to do.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I have a log file. In that log file thre contains text. Something along the lines of this.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>115=WAS</div>
<div>115=GAD</div>
<div>115=TRE</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I need to search that log file (thought of using grep) and write each text after the "=" sign to another text file. So the other text file (call it "<strong>List</strong>") will contain a list of all the differernt values for 115.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>After I have created that, i then need to run a script that will run through the latest log file and compare the <strong>List </strong>from the log file and any new 115=... values that are not in the<strong> List </strong>text file must be added, vice versa. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>End result is that I want to track and see how many values I can get in the 115=...</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The log file is siuated on a different server/machine on my network, so I want the script to be able to copy the log file from the server to my machine.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I hope that makes sense.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>Many thanks for your help.</div><div><div></div><div class="h5">

<div>Hi there,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>How do you connect to a different server using python? (I have not used python before)</div>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>What kind of server? What do you ultimately want to do? </div>
