Here is a perl script I asked our perl guy to write to do what you/we are
requesting...  We use it for our weekly rotations.
 
Hope this is helpful...

 It has two modes of operation, command line and interactive.

Command line format is:
./nb.pl <Start Date> <Start Time> <End Date> <End Time>

executed as:
./nb.pl  01/20/03 06:00 01/22/03 23:59

Notice that the time you enter does not have the seconds, it is only HH:MM,
the seconds are appended as :00 to the input.

To use it in automatic mode just type ./nb.pl and you are prompted through
all the required information.   A couple notes though, the time is checked
to make sure that the hours are valid and the minutes are valid and the date
is checked to make sure a valid month is entered and a valid number of days
for that month.  For example, you cannot say 02/30/03 it will give an
informational error and prompt for  the same info until the user gets it
right or <CTR>C is pressed.

What it does not check is the dates against each other.  It does not make
sure that the '-d' date or tim is earlier than the '-e' date or time.  Also,
the year is only checked to make sure it is two digits.  The value of the
year you enter is not checked at all.  Also the year is hardcoded with a
'20' prefix.  If you need this changed let me know.
