I want to parse a string in bash shell scripting

'serverDN'       :'/DC=ch/DC=cern/OU=computers/CN=myserverName', \

and result should be like this

Strip off the beginning and the end:

string=${string#*:\'}
string=${string%\'*}

echo "'serverDN' :'/DC=ch/DC=cern/OU=computers/CN=myserverName', \\" |
  awk -F"'" '{print $4}'
/DC=ch/DC=cern/OU=computers/CN=myserverName
