General :: Descending List Ordered By File Modification Time
Feb 28, 2011How can I generate a list of files in a directory [e.g.: "/mnt/hdd/PUB/"] ordered by the files modification time? [in descending order, the oldest modified file is at the lists end]
ls -A -lRt would be great:[URL]
But if a file is changed in a directory it lists the full directory...so the pastebined link isn't good [i don't want a list ordered by "directories", I need a "per file" ordered list]
OS: openwrt..[no perl -> not enough space for it :( + no "stat", or "file" command]
Red Hat :: Checking Last File Modification Time
Mar 5, 2010I don't think there is a way of doing this with date or clock commands. But maybe they are writing to some file and I can take a look at the file's modification time. dmesg and /var/log/messages show nothing relevant.

Oct 29, 2010I'd like to change a files modification date "only" without changing the time. I'm aware of the 'touch' command but is seems like it only allows changing both the date and time, and not one of them. Any ideas on an easy way to change a file's modification date without also changing its time? (I have a long list of files and thus would like to run one to command to change them all)Example: Change a file's (month) timestamp from "2010-09-23 11:59:23" to "2010-10-23 11:59:23"Background: I accidentally set the wrong month on my camera and ended up with all photos having a modification timestamp with the wrong month.

Jan 11, 2010I need to get the modified date on a file in linux to use in a script.I tried using 'ls -l' on the file, but this caused problems when the date turned from a single digit into a double. The reason for the problem was because I was parsing the result string on spaces.How can I get the date of the last time a file was modified so I can use it in a script? For example, if a file was modified on 1/11/2010, I need the 11.

General :: Partition Modification Made Windows Crash ?
Feb 8, 2010I have an HP laptop with both Ubuntu 8.04 and Windows Vista installed on it.
The other day I noticed I was running out of space in the main linux partition (the / partition, not the /home partition), so I decided to move some space from the Windows partition and move it to the linux one. I used a GParted Live CD to do that.
My partitions are ordered as follows:
Windows Vista partition (NTFS)
Main linux partition / (ext3)
Linux home partition /hom (ext3)
HP RECOVERY (NTFS - I don't know what it is, it just comes with HP laptops that have Vista on them)
So I shrank partition 1, and then "moved" partition 2 to enlarge it (GParted said everything was alright).
After doing that, I went to my linux and everything seemed to be fine, I'm also quite sure I had access to my Windows partition as always. But today I tried to start my Windows and it just got stuck on the "loading" stage (that screen that says "Microsoft Corporation" and has a green loading bar). So I shut the computer down manually (by holding the power button for a few seconds). After doing that a couple of time, I went to my linux, which worked just fine, but I was not able to go to the Windows partition. You can see how GParted looks now for my computer:[url]
As you can see, the first partition (/dev/sda1), which is supposed to be the Windows partition, is not mounted and the system doesn't seem to be able to read it properly. Here is my attempt to mount it manually:
Code:
Mount is denied because NTFS is marked to be in use. Choose one action:
Choice 1: If you have Windows then disconnect the external devices by clicking on the 'Safely Remove Hardware' icon in the Windows taskbar then shutdown Windows cleanly.
Choice 2: If you don't have Windows then you can use the 'force' option for your own responsibility. For example type on the command line: mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /windows/ -o force
Or add the option to the relevant row in the /etc/fstab file: /dev/sda1 /windows/ ntfs-3g force 0 0
General :: Copying Files According To Modification Date And Extension?

General :: Merge Files By Creation / Modification Date?
Oct 4, 2010I have a folder with hundreds of .txt files (logs of some java application) that I have to merge in to one single .txt file. This application produces a new log file everyday:
day1: logFriday10September2010.txt
day2: logSaturday11September2010.txt
...
day8: logFriday17September2010.txt
...
and so on...
I could merge the files easily with "cat" and ">>" however, the problem is that I have to do it by taking into account the date (creation or modification) of the file.
If I simple use the cat command the output file will receive for example, all Fridays in a row, then all Saturdays, etc. and in that way I'm not considering the date.
I've searched for the options of the find command, since the files after creation are not modified...I try to use this for example:
$ find . -newer <some old file>
but that lists me all files after that <old file> and not by correct date.

General :: Search Within A Log File Within A Time Range
Jun 24, 2011I want to search in my apache log, for events which have occurred say between 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM. I have got few scripts/commands but they are not conclusive, some of then are trying to do an exact match(awk) and for some i am just getting the pattern wrong (eGrep)
I am running RHEL.
Apache log eg:
================================================================
10.92.120.129 - - [24/Jun/2011:01:29:07 -0500] "GET /favicon.ico HTTP/1.1" 302
================================================================
now if i want to find out the logs from 1 PM to 2 PM
some example i had was:
cat <apache.log> | grep -E '07/Apr/20110[1-2]:[0-5][0-9]|02:00)'
small script in which i can pass the start time and end time range, and it should give an output of the rows which fall under that time range.

View 3 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Real-time Sync File Between Machines?
Jul 15, 2010I have a few servers that are exposed to the internet. When someone tried to brute force hack in to the ssh, ossec adds their IP to the hosts.deny. Then the hacker (read: script kiddie) moves to the next IP up the line and hits my next server, etc, etc.
I end up getting 20 emails for all the servers that they hit.
My question, is there anyway to sync the hosts.deny file across multiple servers so that if they are locked out of one, they are locked out of all?
