Lol, I guess I am trained now to spot errors and remember them. You keep putting the " in
echo "trying "${fname} (${bname})" >&2
But now I notice it! Anyway, yeah here it is:

Quote:
box 1(root):/home/izivanov# sh dirsync6.sh
trying /opt/dba/scp/xxxxxxx (xxxxxxxxxxx)
local hash is xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
MD5 (/opt/dba/scp/xxxxxxxxxx) = xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

A couple of cannot open things on the bottom. Not really sure what that is!

Also what should I re-name the variable t with. My boss said that its not best practice to do that cause if anyone else looks at the script they won't know what the t stands for! I'm not sure what it stands for either! I know that it compares the hash-es of the files!

right, I was about to ask you about what to do if the files are different. My sync report got changed!

BRANDELF(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 					       BRANDELF(1)

NAME
brandelf -- mark an ELF binary for a specific ABI SYNOPSIS
brandelf [-lv] [-f ELF_ABI_number] [-t string] file ... DESCRIPTION
The brandelf utility marks an ELF binary to be run under a certain ABI for FreeBSD. The options are as follows: -f ELF_ABI_number Forces branding with the supplied ELF ABI number. Incompatible with the -t option. These values are assigned by SCO/USL. -l Writes the list of all known ELF types to the standard error. -v Turns on verbose output. -t string Brands the given ELF binaries to be of the string ABI type. Currently supported ABIs are ``FreeBSD'', ``Linux'', and ``SVR4''. file If -t string is given it will brand file to be of type string, otherwise it will simply display the branding of file. EXIT STATUS
Exit status is 0 on success, and 1 if the command fails if a file does not exist, is too short, fails to brand properly, or the brand requested is not one of the known types and the -f option is not set. EXAMPLES
The following is an example of a typical usage of the brandelf command: brandelf file brandelf -t Linux file SEE ALSO
