Hey guys..

Per my question.. Here's what I came up with in a few mins.. It works,
getting me the actual data from the Location/redirected 301 url.

If there's a better soln, let me know and I'll check it out.

Thanks

curl -v -A "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:45.0) Gecko/20100101
Firefox/45.0" --cookie-jar aa.lwp --cookie aa.lwp -i "
http://case.bncollege.com" | egrep -A 10 '301 Moved Permanently|302 Found'
| grep 'Location' | awk -F': ' '{print $2}' | tail -1 | sed
's/.*storeId=\(.*\)&catalogId=10001&langId=-1/\1/'

This gets the actual "storeId" in the redirected url. --pretty sure the
sed could be cleaned up!!
