Thanks for the above lines of code. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get it working on Sun Solaris 10 or MEPIS Linux 7.5. Alternatively, I've got a one line code that requires PERL: perl -e 'print scalar(localtime(time - 86400)), "\n"' Thanks for the contribution. Which LINUX/UNIX did you run the above script on? Kind Regards, Jason Hi.

Thanks for the above lines of code.

Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to get it working on Sun Solaris 10 or MEPIS Linux 7.5.

Alternatively, I’ve got a one line code that requires PERL:

perl -e ‘print scalar(localtime(time – 86400)), “\n”‘

Thanks for the contribution. Which LINUX/UNIX did you run the above script on?
