creation of unwanted directory
hi all
i have a file with server id's and I need to create a directory corresponding to each server id listed in the text file.
eg:
id directory name
1 node_1
2 node_2
... ..... and so on.
There is no id with value 0 in the said text file.
the program is creating the directories but also creating an extra directory node_0 when executing in one machine and does not create directory node_0 (as required) when executing in another machine.
Can anybody tell me the reason for this.
plz. help
thanx
