Help needed in regex

Hi,

Could you please help me in writing a regex for the following requirement?
Let following be the string format:

abc.cdef.ghij.lm

I need to check between dots, there is atleast one character{a-z,A-Z,*}.
Eg: abc1.gt2.345j is valid, but not 123.abc.vff.gth because 123 should not be allowed.
Thanks in advance!

This looks like a reboot of Validate FQDN using shell script, minus useful information that wasn't provided until the second page of that thread. If you're trying to get more attention for your request, the least you could have done was point people at the other thread. Regardless, don't be surprised if this duplicate thread is closed.

Regards,

Hi Alister,

This is not exactly a reboot of that thread. I managed to get most things done in the original request. Just one particular use case was not working. So I thought maybe Ill ask that here.
The only thing maybe I forgot to mention here is that I want only a POSIX compliant regex. I thought maybe I need not mention that explicitly as this seemed to be not that complicated and could be done without involving Perl,etc.
Sorry if I did not follow the forum rules.. :frowning:
