Thanks bipinajith for reply...

So you mean to say below script will also work ? with two addtional line above, I hope it will


Code:
#!/bin/ksh

cd /users/jack/DR01/
sudo cp /etc/default/passwd /users/jack/passwd-default

while read i
do
        sudo cp -r "$i" /users/jack/DR01/.
done < /users/jack/mainfile-dr.txt

cd /users/jack/DR01/
TS=$( date +"%d%b%Y-%H:%M:%S" )
sudo tar cvf system1-DR.${TS}.tar *
scp system1-DR.${TS}.tar backupserver:/DRFiles/system1
sudo rm -rf system1-DR.${TS}.tar

Why you say "That is Dangerous Backticks", can you explain in single line, I saw that link but no idea..

Thanks again,

I will check your date code in my script now.
