RE: [Rottlog-develop] Install Problem

[Jeff Grossman]

Okay, here you go.  Remember, I had to change the first line to say
/bin/sh instead of /bin/bash.

[corp1:/temp] root# ./test.script
Path to convert is: /dir/to/test
TRY 1 (this shouldn't work): /dir/to/test
TRY 2 : /dir/to/test
TRY 3 : /dir/to/test
TRY 4 : /dir/to/test
TRY 5 : /dir/to/test
TRY 6 : \dir\to\test
TRY 7 : \/dir\/to\/test\/

Please let me know if there is anything else I can do.

Jeff
