   You don't need to use goto's in linux shell so do something like this:   
      
   if [ -a nodelist.${num} ]; then   
     cp nodelist.${num} /home/fido/makenl/z115fake/   
   else   
     cp nodelist.${oldnum} /home/fido/makenl/z115fake/   
   fi

   # some other linux command and functions for check and move files here under.

   Ok, except for copy -> cp and you forgot the destination of the copy! ;)
