have you tried sed 's/1108/$startline/g' /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf >
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.tmp ?

I was wondering if anyone could help me out with the syntax of a sed
command. I am writing a script to delete virtual hosts from the Apache
config file. I know that the following command works.
sed -e '1108,1116d' /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf >
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.tmp
What I would like to do is replace 1108 and 1116 with the variables
$startline and $endline, but I keep getting errors. I have tried
sed -e '$startline,$endlined' /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf >
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.tmp
sed -e '`echo $startline`,`echo $endlined`' /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
>
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.tmp
However neither one worked. Does any one have any idea? I would
really
appreciate it. Right now I'm clueless.
