General :: Find And Delete A File Using A Code?
Apr 27, 2011
I am trying to find and delete a file using this Code: find . -type f -name ph2964781400100954291.jpg -exec rm -f {} ; It does not work, I think because by default on my distro rm is iterative.

Many folders within a subdirectory some of which have lots of data in and some of which have only one specific file called produkt.fil inside.I need a command to find and delete those folders that contain ONLY the file produkt.fil - if other files exist (doesnt matter what they are) then they should be left alone. Note: produkt.fil exists in all of the folders always.

I have a bunch of text files, all of them have a .txt extension. They are all located in subfolders of the /MyTextFiles folder (but could be anywhere, no idea what depth). If any line in any of the text files has the word "hello" I want to delete that entire line. I know sed and awk are made for this problem but I can't seem to get the syntax correct.

I need to find a string in a file ... then delete the line it is on, as well as the next 6 lines. Or, delete the line the string is on and all subsequent lines until the search finds the character "["
example:
filename = test.txt
contents:
[foo]
test>test
test>test
test>test
[Code]....
so, in this example. I'd like to search the file for string 'foo' and delete all lines from that line until [bar] (not deleting the line with [bar])

How do I find the OID code for a physical volume.I managed to get it to work with our snmp monitoring software to alert me when disk space was < 10% but the computer which was running the SNMP monitoring died.For the life of me I can't remeber how I got it to work.I have 4 partitions 1 has 88% free /etc/mapper/volgroup002 has 21% free /boot3 nfsd 0 bytes4 sunrpc 0 bytesHere is a copy of the OID I'm using 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.5.1 I change the last number to resemble the drive but i'm testing using 8% and they each return an error drive space low which is what the VB script tells it to do. I know the script works as I use it on Windows Servers no problems.I do an SNMPWALK on the server and it validates the above OID with HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageSize so I know thats valid.But thats where I'm stuck. What value should I see if I were to use this OID 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.6.1 which is for free disk space.

I have a directory containing a ton of photos, some of which are duplicates but just with different names. Is there any way in linux to find all the duplicates and remove all of them except the most recent version? I know on Windows there are utilities that will do this through a GUI, but I'm using Linux through the CLI only.

When I ls -l /etc/passwd, -rw-r--r-- 1 root root /etc/passwd When I login as myself, and rm /etc/passwd, it asks: rm: remove write-protected file '/etc/passwd'? If I say yes, will it actually delete the passwd file?

I am in the process of re-DL-ing the ISO as the checksums didn't match.
Mind you, that was with a shell extension in Win-Lose. Who knows.
Anyway:
I have the ISO (that I had previously) on a USB courtesy of UNetBootIn. All appears well until, quite quickly, I receive an error after the loading process which goes something like:
Code:
Error: cannot find disk at [hash-code - looks like 0ace5f etc etc, is about 12 char's in length.]Something very similar (but not same error I think) happened when I tried to do the same with my OpenSolaris or Fedora install. I.e., gets as far as the very beginning of the loader and then: bork.
At least one of them said "will reboot in 120 secs". Saves me the trouble!

I was creating a few scripts, I am trying to create a restore script to restore files that have previously been moved to a folder I selected. When moved I stored the original path for these files all in one text file.
I want to know if anyone can tell me how to delete the line from the file after using it restore the file. I have used the grep command to search through the file "pathName" to find where the file was stored but now want to delete that same line.

I have a log file which is continously being accessed. Now I want to delete the first line without disturbing the file.Is it possible? The Issue is the log file is being provisioned with ^@^@^@ characters in the first line occupying huge space.So I need to get rid of that. I dont have time to work with root cause but just a script to reduce this space.

I'm confused about "hard link" feature. I've been learning from my UNIX Academy DVDs training that hard links to a file can be many and each of them is an effective filename for the associated data. So let assume that we have some very sensitive data in a file and we want it to be deleted and file has 20 links. I "delete" a file, but in fact I deleted only one "name" of it. My understanding from the training that data is still there until we delete the last associated hard link. But how can I find the names of all of them? If we have the names, they can be removed one by one. Or may be there's command that can trace all the "names" and remove them at once?
