I think the following script will for for your pattern.
-- CUT HERE ---
#!/bin/bash
# To rename ccna.pod1.pc1.ext is renamed to ccna.pod2.pc1.ext
for file in $(ls ccna*ext | sort -rn -k 1.9)
do
let ix=$(echo $file | sed -e 's/.*pod//' -e 's/.pc..ext//')
let iy=$ix+1
That is what my script does. The sort -rn -k 1.9 says, sort reverse
numeric with key 1 character position 9. I also check to make sure that
another file is not dropped in there during processing of the script.

Is there a way to single step bash script to inspect what is going on? I

eclipse and then run it once single stepping in debug mode to make sure
what I meant is what is actually happening.

When I need copious debugging output from a bash script, I put set -x
at the top of the file. When I need to check the syntax for a script,
I do sh -n file.sh. Someone else

Free as in
assuming you're just trimming off ccna, pc1, and ext
for i in $( ls )
do
mv $i $( echo $i | awk -F. '{ print $3 }' )
done
That would move them to pod# names.
