I want to display lines that contain "addUser" and "2012-08-03" strings together on the same line in a Linux file. How to do this?

awk '/addUser/ && /2012-08-03/' < file

or

grep addUser < file | grep 2012-08-03

or

sed -n 's@addUser@&@p' < file | sed -n 's@2012-08-03@&@p'

or

ruby -e 'File.readlines( "file" ).each {|l| puts l if l =~ /addUser/ and l =~ /2012-08-03/ }'
