Hi list,

I have a cron task set up using lockf.

I'd like to redirect one exit status to /dev/null :

"it (lockf command) returns one of the exit codes defined in
      sysexits(3), as follows:

      EX_TEMPFAIL   The specified lock file was already locked by another
                    process.

      EX_CANTCREAT  The lockf utility was unable to create the lock
file, e.g.,
                    because of insufficient access privileges.

      EX_USAGE      There was an error on the lockf command line.

      EX_OSERR      A system call (e.g., fork(2)) failed unexpectedly.

      EX_SOFTWARE   The command did not exit normally, but may have been
sig-
                    naled or stopped."

I don't care about the EX_TEMPFAIL output as I consider it as a
successful exit status, not an error.

I there a trick to do that in a short way ?
something like

logfile=/var/log/lockf.log
lockf lockfile command
[ $? -eq 75 ]&&  logfile=/dev/null ## EX_TEMPFAIL is defined to be 75

I used this $? test in a script.
My question was to know if it is possible to do this in 1 command line, but I found nothing anywhere to do this.

Thank you for the answer !
