How to remove common lines from a text file in Korn Shell

Hi all,

I have a file that looks like:


*/tmp/dst/file1*234*RW*6790
*/tmp/dst/file2*568*RW*908
*/tmp/dst/file3*345*RW*746
*/test/flm/file4*354*RW*987
*/test/flm/file5*643*RW*645


I need to keep all of the lines with the exception of the one with
file1 and file3 which have in common "/tmp/dst". I need to preserve
the line /tmp/dst/file2 plus the others that start with */test


Any ideas on how to do this with korn shell?

Thanks!
BTNA
