Hi.. Need to ask you a simple script question, I used the date command to get the yesterday web log file using the following command echo ex`date -d yesterday +%y%m%d.log` in Linux. I want to create a simple script to cat /home/IT/ex060530.log > kr.log using the following script but it is not working. May I know how do I put the output of echo ex`date -d yesterday +%y%m%d.log into cat /home/IT/xxxx > kr.log ? [root@w2 krweblog3]# echo ex`date -d yesterday +%y%m%d.log` ex060530.log [root@w2 krweblog3]# vi krweblog.sh #!/bin/sh # KRWEBLOG3= echo ex`date -d yesterday +%y%m%d.log` cat /home/IT/$KRWEBLOG3 > kr.log __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
