Hello folks: No doubt this will be easy for those with scritping abilities. I have a gazillion files by the same name and each contains the same line requiring the same change. But the problem is that they are in many different directories on a server with numerous domains. While I could handle the change using a single directory within my abilities, I'm unsure how to do a search and replace throughout the many domains and their directories. Don't want to mess up. Here's what I'm trying to do: # find all of the same filenames (copyright.htm) and then replace the year 2010 with 2011 in each file. Once I have a working script, I should be able to add it as a cron job to run on the first day of each new year. Any help appreciated. Thanks! Jack (^_^) Happy trails, Jack L.
