The date command seems to have an issue with months ending on the 31st. This is an example of the behaviour:
theden:~ # date -s "31 July 2006 14:07" Mon Jul 31 14:07:00 SAST 2006 theden:~ # date --date "1 month ago" Sat Jul 1 14:07:12 SAST 2006 theden:~ # uname -a Linux theden 2.4.21-278-default #1 Mon Mar 7 09:14:15 UTC 2005 i686 unknown OS:use Linux Enterprise 8, SP 4 Version [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> date --version date (GNU sh-utils) 2.0 Written by David MacKenzie.
