Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Get a given date and subtract it to 5 days ago Post 303013044 by apmcd47 on Wednesday 14th of February 2018 06:30:14 AM

Gnu date will be able to parse the initial expiry date string, ie Feb 13 23:59:59 2019 GMT without the need to munge it into, eg 13-Feb-19. All the suggestions in the above examples should work just as well with that initial string.
