| I wonder is there a way purely using sed though.
there is.
do the obvious:
sed -e 's/notify yes;/notify no;\
masters { $IP; }/'
note that the newline is escaped _and_ that argument
is enclosed in 'single'-quotes. why both are needed
(or at least recommended) is left as an exercise to
the reader.
cheers!
