Hi,
I use the date command to find the next day of a date written in the
'yyyymmdd' format,
e.g. for 25 October 2008
date -d "20081025 1 days" +%Y%m%d
which gives as result the next day: 20081026
This works perfect for all dates I used so far, apart from a (strangely
enough) 20081026
date -d "20081026 1 days" +%Y%m%d
returns the same datecode: 20081026
If you manage to reproduce this behaviour at your system too there might
be a bug in the `date` utility
Regards,
Bas Mijling
