Grep output help

Comment:

Hello, I need to return all the text from a logfile after Jan 07. When I use grep Jan 07 it only returns the lines with this text, but I need all the lines after the first match of Jan 07. Does anyone know the command to get that. Thank You

A command such as awk or sed would be better to identify and process a block of lines. sed -n '/Jan 07/,$ p' logfile

Thanks James, The command you gave me worked. I don't usually work in Linux but I needed some log info from the server.
