[SunRescue] FreeBSD date and Solaris date commands

[Ron Rosson]

Heya...

I am still leaning new things with my ultra1 running solaris 2.8. My
latest hangup is the date command.

On a FreeBSD box when I run:
        date -v-1d +%m-%d-%Y
I get:  
        03-06-2001

On my Solaris 2.8 box it dont work. Basically I just need it to tell me
what yesterdays date was.

TIA
