Often here I might say something to the effect that I can't recreate the problem. But in this case I can't recreate the success! As far as I know that isn't the accepted syntax. It should be the other way around. This would work for example. date --date "11-jul-2010 + 7 days" > However it works fine on our other server that we have not patched yet. > > vhost01.vgs.int: ~ % % /usr/local/gnu/bin/date --date "7 days + 11-jul-2010" > Sun Jul 18 00:00:00 PDT 2010 Who am I to dispute an example such as that! What are the versions of those two different date commands? /usr/local/gnu/bin/date --version Is this a version of the coreutils that you compiled yourself or from some other source? GNU is all about the source.
