Dear All

   I have two text files File1.txt and File2.txt . I am concatenating the two files and making it as single file Cat_File.txt. Now i need to keep joined file in two different path. that is I need to use cat command only once ,but store joined file in two different locations. Since file size is huge, I trying to avoid second cat or move or copy.

Command used for cat
-----------------------
cat File1.txt File2.txt > /file_path/Cat_File.txt

may be, you can try:
cat File1.txt File2.txt | tee file_path1/Cat_File.txt > file_path2/Cat_File.txt

You can use tee to achieve this as below.

cat infile1 infile2 | tee outfile1 > outfile2

Hi

You can use following command
cat a b > /root/c
This will copy all the data in both the files a and b into the file c..
If file c is not present the this command will make it and append data into it...
