Hi,
I need a script to delete files that are 30 days older and also the file name should contain aa or ab or ac as substring...
Regards,
Dolly....
find /someDirectory -type f -name *aa* -atime +30 -exec rm {} \;
Hey sorry to bother....
Im new to scripting........
wts the function of "-atime" ?
can we use or condition in Scripts bcos i need to delete a filename which could either contain aa or ab or ac as substring.......
Thanx a lot....
Read man find to find out all about -atime and its friends.
To match aa, ab or ac sunstrings in the filename, use a regexp like
find . -name "*a[abc]*
The bit in brackets means "match any of these characters".
