Hi,
Actually my Requirement is like this :-
I have shell script in kern shell ,have to run alternate week per month
example-today's date is 27 Mar 2013 and my script will run today then for the next time when it will run it should check 1st what was the last run date(27 Mar 2013) if it is matched 15days from current date then run else sent a mail with waning mgs.

i have a AWK command it is checking only within a month
Code:
Code:
date +%Y:%m:%d|awk -vFS=":" -vOFS=":" '{$3=$3-3;print}'

suppose i am checking 20days from current date it is give some negative value(-8)
ex-2013:03:-8

I hope you will understand my problem.

Regards,
Krupa

LEARN ABOUT NETBSD

weekly.conf

WEEKLY(5)						      BSD File Formats Manual							 WEEKLY(5)

NAME

     weekly, weekly.conf -- weekly maintenance

DESCRIPTION

     The /etc/weekly script is run, by default, every Saturday morning on a NetBSD system.  The /etc/weekly.conf file specifies which of the stan-
     dard weekly services are performed.

     The variables described below can be set to ``YES'' or ``NO'' in the /etc/weekly.conf file.  The default settings are in the
     /etc/defaults/weekly.conf file.  (Note that you should never edit /etc/defaults/weekly.conf directly, as it is often replaced during system
     upgrades.)

     rebuild_locatedb  This rebuilds the locate(1) database, /var/db/locate.database, which must also exist, in order to be rebuilt.

     rebuild_mandb     This rebuilds the apropos(1) database /var/db/man.db, using makemandb(8) with the -f option.

     rebuild_whatisdb  This rebuilds the whatis(1) database(s).  Note that NetBSD provides a default whatis.db for the system manual pages and
		       this may not be needed.	(Adjust your /etc/man.conf as necessary; see man.conf(5) for details.)

FILES

     /etc/weekly	weekly maintenance script
     /etc/weekly.conf	weekly maintenance configuration
     /etc/weekly.local	local site additions to /etc/weekly

SEE ALSO

     daily.conf(5), monthly.conf(5)

HISTORY

     The /etc/weekly script first appeared in 4.3BSD.  The /etc/weekly.conf configuration file appeared in NetBSD 1.3.
