What do you have so far?

[DinoFly]

For the first part I have a solution which was realy simple:
a script that prints as a output lines between two lines let say first variable is a :

Mon Aug 31 09:00:00 2009 CET

and the last line is

Tue Sep 08 09:00:00 2009 CET

and it is :
awk '/Mon Aug 31 09:00:00 2009 CET/,/Tue Sep 08 09:00:00 2009 CET/' file

but for the second part printing a specific line after a matched line I am still trying to figure out ...

If I understand you correctly, you want to print everything between two lines but not the two lines themselves.
If so, this script ought to do it

#!/bin/bash

if [ $# -lt 1 ]
then
    exit
fi

bolle=0
beginstr="three"
endstr="seven"

if [ -e $1 ]
then
    for line in $(cat $1)
    do
        if [ $line == $endstr ]
        then
            bolle=0
        fi

        if [ $bolle -eq 1 ]
        then
            echo $line
        fi

        if [ $line == $beginstr ]
        then
            bolle=1
        fi
    done
else
    echo no existo
fi
