Need help with script changing dates
I am attempting to write a script where the user enters the month and day (two digit format). I am trying to have script will increase 6 more times (totaling 7). I am having issues with the script increasing by one (its either dropping off the lead zero or not increasing for 08 and 09). While attempting to create this script, i realized i couldnt get it to switch over to the next month if the search falls between the end of one and beginning of another month. The script takes the input and searches log files for that day (log2010$MM$DD*) and counting the amount of times a password is changed and a user is created. Then it increases by one and searches the next file. It is a very crude script (because I suck) Is there anyone that can fine tune and fix my problems? script is attached

nnstats

NNSTATS(1m)															       NNSTATS(1m)

NAME

       nnstats - display nnmaster collection and expire statistics

SYNOPSIS

       nnstats [ -lt ] [ -d month day ] [ -m month ] [ logfile ]...

DESCRIPTION

       nnstats	will  extract  the collection (C) and expiration (X) entries from the log file and calculate total and average number of articles,
       groups and elapsed time per day, per month, or for the duration of the whole log file.

       Normally only a summary for the specified period is printed.  If -l is specified, the statistics  for  each  day  in  the  period  is  also
       printed, and if -t is specified the summary is not printed.

       Normally the statistics is collected for all days in the log files (or the current log file if one is not specified).

       If  "-m	month" is specified, the statistics for that month is calculated.  The month is specified in normal date notation, i.e. a capital-
       ized three letter abbreviation like Jan, Feb, ...

       If "-d month day" is specified, the statistics for that date only is calculated and printed.

FILES

       ../Log	The log file

SEE ALSO

       nn(1), nnusage(1M), nnadmin(1M), nnmaster(8)

NOTES

       If nnmaster is run with options -LCX, nnstats will not work, because the necessary entries are not written to the log file.
