Hi Phil

thank you

But I have several hundred those pattern directories!

I did think to cat those directories in a file
"olddir"

eg:

dir-192.168.30.0   
dir-192.168.30.144 
dir-192.168.30.184
........................................

and sed 's/dir-192.168/dir-10.0/g' olddir > newdir

but i don't know how to move 

rename the directories in olddir to newdir

Thank you again
