Hello Janis!

I just come to send out some files here Thursday evening several times and with
day number for Friday.
This while I was trying out to make some updated daily nodelst files for stn and pasnet.
The problem is that use of julian day for Europe and US only works early in the
morning like between midnight and midday.
The best time to use julian day is do it when the world have the same day number else have one to manage it with the number to be like ${num}-1 so the number get the right digit when it shall work automatic.

Take care,
Gert

Hi Gert,

I just come to send out some files here Thursday evening several times and wit
day number for Friday.
This while I was trying out to make some updated daily nodelst files for stn and pasnet.
The problem is that use of julian day for Europe and US only works early in th
morning like between midnight and midday.
The best time to use julian day is do it when the world have the same day number else have one to manage it with the number to be like ${num}-1 so the number get the right digit when it shall work automatic.

I haven't had a problem with the date, Gert..

I use this in my script:

num=`date +%j --date=Friday`
pick=`expr substr $num 2 3`
year=`date +%Y`
lastwk=$(($num -7))
lpick=`expr substr $lastwk 2 3`

Then I use the appropriate var where I need it.

Hope this helps..

Take care,
Janis

Yes, I maybe should have make me a script file for each week day and then is it
that I forgot to change the day for julian day so by each of my dailylst script
get the right week day for julian day.

Take care,
Gert

I thinking on then too on how I by linux can manage a dos command as
example 'if not then copy else'
if not exist lnxr500.${num} then copy lnxr500.006 to a dir lnxr500.${num} else copy lnxr500.${num} to dir\
The script get the julian day and then is it on by checking some segment files and copy them to daily segment files, so latest and newest segment is there to makenl use the rights segment to the dailylist.


Take care,
Gert

I created a new .ctl file for each day of the week, monday.ctl, tuesday.ctl, etc. etc. for the dailylist nodelist files.

My cronjob just runs that day's .ctl file.

What about the zone.ctl is you then just use one zone.ctl to make sure you have
incoming segments in use or then 7 zone.ctl.
I normaly using zone.ctl and 7 dXzone.ctl file but the problem is that when I run the dailys distrib as dlist1 dlist2 etc. then is the zone output files got to got like dzone.013 after dzone.006.
My daily .ctl have this set in them
process saturday
publish saturday

Then is there else to do a daily cp zone.006 or zone.013 to zone.${num} so it been to the actually day.

Take care,
Gert
