 need regex to extract domain.name from host.domain.name I'm struggling to find the right expression to extract only the domain name
from a string that contains the host name as well.
In a file of records of host.domain.names, where som have host names, and
some don't!
like
ns1.domain.com
domain0.com
domain2.com
xxx.domain3.com
I need to grab only the
xxxx.com part
Could some kind soul help please.
Thanks heaps
Robert

Since the host name is the first sequence of non-'.' characters, an
easy way is to use the split function:
print ((split /\./,$fully_qualified_domain_name)[0])

Group the match with ()'s and match the end of the line
s%(.*)\.(.*)\.(.*)$%$2\.$3%;
$ perl -nle '$_ =~ s%(.*)\.(.*)\.(.*)$%$2\.$3%; print "Result: $_"'
a.b
Result: a.b
a.b.c
Result: b.c
a.b.c.d
Result: c.d
a.b.c.d.e
Result: d.e

_Gus

my($domain) = /([a-z0-9-]+\.(?:com|net|org|gov|edu|mil))$/i;
# do something with $domain

Note the parentheses around $domain, which cause the regex to be
evaluated in a list context. Note also that this will not work
for host names in country-code top-level domains (.uk, .fr, .jp,
etc.), because many of those TLDs have deeper hierarchies. For
example, applying a similar regex to .uk host names would result
in assigning all commercial hosts to co.uk, regardless of their
company name, and assigning all academic hosts to ac.uk,
regardless of their university.
