Hey Arto & everyone using this script:

Be careful when trying to run this on Red Hat Enterprise Linux or CentOS 4 systems. These operating systems ship with a different rename command than the debian systems. You can also tell them apart based on the output when running ‘rename’ with no arguments.

This is the perl version which works:
Usage: rename [-v] [-n] [-f] perlexpr [filenames]

This is the RHEL/CentOS version that doesn’t:
call: rename.orig from to files…

Hope this helps someone out there, and thanks for the script Arto!
