Q: given a text file: "arp.txt" as follows:


contents of "arp.txt"
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
D:\study\perl\WIP>type arp.txt

Interface: 192.168.1.100 --- 0x2
Internet Address Physical Address Type

192.168.1.107 00-01-02-7c-94-47 dynamic
192.168.1.109 00-50-ba-a2-90-86 dynamic
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -


I'd like to pull out a specific mac address: "00-50-ba-a2-90-86 "


here is my simple program:
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
#!perl -w

print "where is mdtFRIENDS:\n";
print `grep "00\-50\-ba\-a2\-90\-86" arp.txt`;

print "test over\n";
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Q: why don't get the line with the mac address on the screen?

I can pull it out without perl like this:

D:\study\perl\WIP>grep "00\-50\-ba\-a2\-90\-86" arp.txt
192.168.1.109 00-50-ba-a2-90-86 dynamic

Q: where am I missing the boat???
