  • Hi waseem hasan. Please edit your question to add some details on what you have tried, what the results were, how those results differed from what you want, and as specifically as possible what you need to know in order to proceed. At the time it is hard to tell exactly what you are asking for. Note that the Unix & Linux Stack Exchange is not a script writing service; we aim to help people coming across these questions in the future as well, potentially years from now, which means that we prefer questions which are likely to help future visitors as well as the original asker.
