Hi all

I use the following script to mail to log file
but sometimes I got the workings 'Null message, hope that ok' after
running the script

Why?
and what is wrong?

TIA

#! /bin/bash
/bin/cat /var/log/messages    > /tmp/tmp_logs
/bin/cat /var/log/secure    >>  /tmp/tmp_logs
/bin/cat /tmp/tmp_logs | grep "$(date +"%b %d" | sed 's/ 0/ /g')" | sort
-o /tmp
/yesterday_log +2
/bin/cat /tmp/yesterday_log | mail -s "Yesterday's Logged Events"
