Comment: Hi,
I need to have a script that will apend all outputs everyday to a single file.
my script:
DATE=/home/myfile.txt
netstat -A |wc -l >>$DATE this will count all established links everyday to a file,but the problem is it puts it to seperate files everyday when I run it in the cron

Reply: (edit)More details please. What are the names of these "different files"? What is the path to them? I recommend starting out by eliminating the variable. Just do: netstat -A | wc -l >> /home/myfil.txt If that works then most likely you have some sort of conflict with the environment variable "DATE".
