Hi All Can anyone suggest a method to convert capitals to lower case in a shell script. I have a radius log that I am trying to convert the usernames to all lower case characters. I am picking up the usernames using a test function which is failing because [ Able = able ] is not performing the query, as one would expect. The rest of the script I am using is written as a shell script and I don't really want to have to rewrite it in perl at present. I have done a man sh, man test etc but can't see anything in there that I can use. Do I need to re write it in perl? TIA Tim
