  1. The case sensitive nature of grep can be alleviated when needed with the '-i' flag. Also, when hunting through config files, I often just want an overview of what is set and what is not so I set a bash alias : $ alias grepconf='grep -Ev '\''^$|^#|^;'\''' This filters out all the comment lines and blank lines to give a succinct view of the config settings. Use it as, e.g.: $ grepconf /etc/samba/smb.conf
