    Exclamation script for scanning two files

    I have developed a shell script which will scan two files and then put the similar records in a third file.The script is follows


    rm $filename3
    touch $filename3

    exec < $filename1

    while read line
    do
    exec <filename2
    while read line1
    do
    if [ $line -eq $line1 ]
    echo $line >> filename3
    end if
    done
    done

    But the above shell script is not working.
    Could anyone help me out?

    Don't dual-post. I already answered this in Linux Newbie.
