but i got a problem here-- my script is like this--
here it will touch the file again and again and appending the day after the file name again like->
ansrpt26529.log.Fri.Fri.Fri.Fri
but i do not want it like that.
i have to take backup of the file.then touch it and delete the file.
the pattern matching for the files to delete is
list=$(ls *log*)
it is selecting all the files ansrpt26529.log.Fri.Fri.Fri.Fri like this but i do not want it like this it sould be only ansrpt26529.log.Fri.
pattern matching may be diffrent here so give me some suggestions to solve this problem.

scanlogs
SCANLOGS(8) System Manager's Manual SCANLOGS(8)NAME
scanlogs - summarize INN log files.
SYNOPSIS
scanlogs [ norotate ] [ nonn ]
DESCRIPTION
Scanlogs summarizes the information recorded in the INN log files (see newslog(5)). By default, it also rotates and cleans out the logs.
It is normally invoked by the news.daily(8) script.
KEYWORDS
The following keywords are accepted:
norotate
Using this keyword disables the rotating and cleaning aspect of the log processing: the logs files are only scanned for information
and no contents are altered.
nonn Normally the nn log file is scanned and rotated. Using this keyword disables this function.
If scanlogs is invoked more than once a day, the ``norotate'' keyword should be used to prevent premature log cleaning.
