Hi timontt

Thank you sooooo much for the reply. Your script is working fine, but in that case I have to append every command to be executed with "2>&1 | tee -a log1.txt >> log2.txt". But in my case the flow of scripts is huge, it jumps from this script and that, many commands are being executed. So to append that stuff everywhere is just next to impossible. When I am writing "exec > log1.txt 2>&1" in the parent shell, all the traces for all the child shells are appearing in the log1.txt and I wanted to duplicate that.

Actually when I am writing "exec > log1.txt", the "stdin" is permanently redirected to log1.txt for the lifetime of the parent shell and hence I can't redirect the output to somewhere else. So I can't solve the issue in that "exec" way. Anyway I could able to solve the problem in other way with other logic.

Thanks again ...

bf_tar

BF_TAR(1)																 BF_TAR(1)

NAME

       bf_tar - shell script to write a tar file of a bogofilter directory to stdout

SYNOPSIS

       bf_tar [-r] [-R] bogofilter_directory

DESCRIPTION

       bf_tar bundles a bogofilter working directory in tar format and copies it to standard output (your console, or where you redirect it, see
       EXAMPLES below).

OPTIONS

       The -r option causes bf_tar to remove inactive log files after the archive has been written successfully. The default is to leave log
       files.

       The -R option causes bf_tar to remove inactive log files before the archive is written. This may reduce chances that the resulting archive
       is recoverable should it become damaged. The archive may be smaller though. The default is to leave log files.

EXIT STATUS

       The script exits with status code 0 if everything went well, and nonzero if it encountered trouble.

EXAMPLES

       o  bf_tar ~/.bogofilter > outfile.tar

	  Writes a standard .tar file containing the essential files from ~/.bogofilter to outfile.tar.

       o  bf_tar ~/.bogofilter | gzip -9 -c > outfile.tar.gz

	  Writes a gzipped .tar.gz file containing the essential files from ~/.bogofilter to outfile.tar.gz.

       o  bf_tar `pwd`/mydirectory > outfile.tar

	  Prepend $(pwd)/ or `pwd`/ if you want to specify an absolute path instead of a relative path.

NOTES

       This script is meant for use with Berkeley DB based bogofilter versions.

       This script requires a SUSv2 compliant pax utility.

       This script expects a SUSv2 compliant shell. Solaris systems should have the SUNWxcu4 package installed (when bogofilter is configured) so
       that /usr/xpg4/bin/sh can be used.
