Re: Problem with external commands

Hi Atle, hi all!

Someone did sent me a script that will "rebuild" our scheduled downtimes 
upon reload.

Sorry, it somehow disappeared from my screens, you could pls. send this 
again?

* I don't remember who sent this to me (tom, Stanley?)
* I don't remember the name of the script
* I remember that it was a ksh or tcsh script

I already converted it to our needs (bash) but I can't find anymore ...

Thank you very much for your help in advance,

Jens
