Thanks for all the answers. I've modified my script. Works great.
Perderabo: i tought about rcs but its an automated process from our vmware team so maybe i'll try to pitch the idea to them but seeing about 100 backup copies of the files (no backup dir, no cleanups, etc) i think its safe to say they are asking for trouble. I'm only here for a project not related and the asked me if i could write a script for them. Its internal DNS for testing network so doesn't go on the net
