i'm so sorry for the confusion.
in exact i have 7 directories that i need to check. let me give an example.
first directory /home/banana and this directory has files which has "BANANA" word in it. so what they want me to do is to detect the file in the directory WITHOUT "BANANA" word in it because it is considired an ivnalid file in the directory. when file(s) WITHOUT "BANANA" is/are detected it will echo "there is invalid files in this directory. please see dummyevents.log"
and the resutls of the script is the dummyevents.log which when you view it, will contain the directories who has a invalid file and the filename of the invalid file.
i hope you understand.
also you can diregard my draft script and suggest another script construction or scipt approach.. thanks.

Hi,
Want to know, is there any way to restrict a Solaris user to Single Login. Means a particular user can login once and if he or someone else tries to login with his ID then a message displayed "user already logged in" and denies his attempt.

check-permissions
check-permissions(1M) System Administration Commands check-permissions(1M)
NAME
check-permissions - check permissions on mail rerouting files
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/check-permissions [login]
DESCRIPTION
The check-permissions script is intended as a migration aid for sendmail(1M). It checks the /etc/mail/sendmail.cf file for all configured
alias files, and checks the alias files for :include: files. It also checks for certain .forward files. For each file that check-permis-
sions checks, it verifies that none of the parent directories are group- or world-writable. If any directories are overly permissive, it is
reported. Otherwise it reports that no unsafe directories were found.
As to which .forward files are checked, it depends on the arguments included on the command line. If no argument is given, the current
user's home directory is checked for the presence of a .forward file. If any arguments are given, they are assumed to be valid logins, and
the home directory of each one is checked.
If the special argument ALL is given, the passwd entry in the /etc/nsswitch.conf file is checked, and all password entries that can be
obtained through the switch file are checked. In large domains, this can be time-consuming.
OPERANDS
The following operands are supported:
login Where login is a valid user name, checks the home directory for login.
ALL Checks the home directory of all users.
FILES
/etc/mail/sendmail.cf Defines environment for sendmail
/etc/mail/aliases Ascii mail aliases file
