Yes, it's an NT issue!
I found a lib "Date::Manip" that fixes this problem:
use Date::Manip;
$NOW = &UnixDate("today","%m%d%y");
print "$NOW";
==> 051000
I saw your output "051100" ! you guys a day a head of us in Oregon, USA
Thanks to you all

So interesting! I'm using bash in HP-UX, not knowing NT version.

But before asking, "date '+%m%d%y'" can return "051100" correctly?
If not, it is a matter of bash.
If yes, ... I can do it by my HP-UX.
