it cleans out the /home/guest directory and saves the content of various directories under a time-stamped folder, it then mirrors the /home/default directory in the /home/guest and sets the appropriate modes,uid's and gid's.
Doesn't your system have an /etc/skel directory for default files like other Unix/Linux systems? 
my ($sec, $min, $hour, $mday, $mon, $year, $wday, $yday, $isdist) =
     gmtime(time);
     
     $min++;
     $hour++;
     $mday++;
     $sec++;
     $mon++;
     $year++;
     
my $count = 0;
     
my @mkdir = ( "$year:$mon:$mday", "$hour:$min:$sec");

Say that you run this code at one minute before midnight on the 28th of February 2007 your two dir names will be "108:2:29" and "24:60:60". Are you sure that you want to do that? And why declare $wday, $yday and $isdist if you are not going to use them?
