Thanks to John Heiden for giving me the answer. My original question is 
below.

Well, you could use SED to do this.  You could do something like:

cp /etc/vfstab /etc/vfstab.old
cat /etc/vfstab | sed "s/oldstring/#oldstring/" > /etc/vfstab.new
cp /etc/vfstab.new /etc/vfstab



> Everyone,
> 	I am not a scripting guru, please don't hold it against me. I just

> unsure how to do that.
> 	Basically, I need to find the machine name in the vfstab and comment it 
> out.

> Any suggestions are welcome.
