Sol 8 Crontab question

Hi

I have a cron job that I just want to rename a file with a date at the end:

01 * * * * cp -p /opt/logs/perllog /opt/logs/perllog.`date +%m-%d-%y' ; rm -rf /opt/logs/perllog ; touch /opt/logs/perllog

The cron runs but names the file like so:
perllog.

What am I doing wrong? It works on my Red Hat system......

Rob
