General :: Find Files In A Directory That Contain Numbers?
Mar 1, 2011
I am trying find files in a directory that contain numbers. I have tried ls /etc *[0-9]* but that doesn't work. If I cd to /etc and run ls *[0-9]* it almost works but it also includes results from within files. My last thought was to try: find /etc [0-9] -type f but this does not work either. My second problem is that I am trying to get list of files in a directory that were changed less than 10 hours ago, using grep, while leaving out directories. I am completely stuck with the second problem.

Is it possible for listing directory and files' permission into numbers?
Generally ls command shows directory and files' permission as follows;
[root:maestro:/home/ddisk_net]# ls -al
Total 44
drwx------ 4 ddisk_net users 4096 7월 20 10:40 .
drwxr-xr-x 21 root root 4096 7월 20 10:28 ..
-rw------- 1 ddisk_net webteam 5 7월 20 10:40 .bash_history
-rw-r--r-- 1 ddisk_net users 33 1월 22 2009 .bash_logout

am writing a small search program for my class. I have decided to use indexing for my program. Ive researched online about indexing and how search engines do it. If im gonno do that I need to create inverted files to associate files to numbers ( numbers being the index of my paths ) . Now I was wondering what would be the best way to create an inverted file ? I was going to create sql tables using mysql api in C but then again there is no array data type or vectors to store few numbers in a single column in mysql and it is not advised to use Enum or SET

I'm quite new to linux but I have configured a simple ftp server and it's working great. I have a FTP-Shared folder with upload and download subfolders. Under upload's and download's I have identical category subfolders like mp3's, movies, software etc. in both. As the guy's upload, I would like to create a line crontab where I can move all the content under /FTP-Shared/upload/mp3/* older than 14 day's to FTP-Shared/downloads/mp3/ recursively (Like in cp command), but the timestamp must be searched on the first directory and not sub files example: /mp3/Club Dance/CD1/Hallo world.mp3This is how far I got:[root@clients ~]# /usr/bin/find /FTP_Shared/upload/Mp3s/ -depth -mindepth 1 -mtime +14 -type d -exec mv -f {} /FTP_Shared/download/Mp3s/ ;This command moves the directory and files, but it is not recursively

There is a very conspicuous inaccuracy in the output of df. I should mention, that it was noticed to to a sudden change in the amount of space that was left on the backup partition. The df -h command produces the following output.

Assumed y directory structure looks as follow:
Code:
--root
-- dir1
-- dir1-1
[code]....
And under each sub dir there are some log files ended with .log. Now I know how to list all these log files with:
Code:
find . -type f -name "*.log"
Assumed now there is a string called "Hello World" inside some of these files. How can I find out these files? I try followings but failed
Code:
grep "This is" | find . -mtime 0 -type f -name "*.log"

I need little help. I want to find all files with extension "*.tar" "*.gz" and "*.zip" and move all those files into "/opt/old" directory. I've tried this command:
Quote:
find . -type f -name "*.tar" "*.gz" "*.zip" -print0 | xargs -0 -r mv /opt/test
It's not working, something wrong after "mv" i guess.

I am looking for Windows Search equivalent looking for file name patterns (not file contents but file names)....
I am aware of "globbing" and wildcard recursive search functionality in ls but I am still not capable of finding files under directories.
for example: I want to find all files starting with a string lsnr* under root directory / and any sub-directories.....
ie I want to look for files like lsnr*.* anywhere under / and any sub-directories under / such as /dir1/dir2/dir4 and dir1/other/dir/someotherdir/sub-dir etc.
so if I have /dir1/lsnrcontrol and also have /dir1/dir/2/dir3/lsnr-tinit.dat then I want to list the files names etc.
how to do this using ls -R and wildcards.

Is there a command to return a recursive listing of sub-directories and the number of files in them? I have found plenty of ways to give me the total number of files in a directory structure, but none that gives a list of the sub-directories with the number of files in them. "du" gives me a listing of directories with their sizes, but I couldn't find an option (or any other way) to give me the number of files as well. Ideally, I'd like to get list with "Size" "Files" "Dir name" - And the order of the columns doesn't matter. Is there a "simple" command line solution or do I need a shell script for that?

This question is very similar to this one except that I want to maintain the file's original subdirectories.
For example if I had
/temp/a/a.txt
/temp/a/a.jpg
/temp/a/b.txt
/temp/b/c.txt
/temp/d/d.txt
/temp/d/d.jpg
/temp/d/e.txt
/temp/f.txt

I have two NASes. I work off of one, and the other is used as a backup. As I have it set up now, it's slow. Running a backup takes a week. Even for 7 TB, with 1,979,407 files, this seems a bit outlandish,particularly as both systems are RAID-5 and the network is all gigabit. I've been digging about in the rsync man pages, and I really don't understand what differentiates the various topologies.Right now, all the processing is being done on the backup NAS, which has the main volume from the main NAS mounted locally over SMB. I suspect that the SMB overhead is killing me, particularly when dealing with lots of files.
I think what I need is to set up rsync on the main nas as a daemon, and then run a local rsync client to connect to it, which would hopefully allow me to completely avoid the whole SMB-in-the-middle affair, but aside from mentioning that it's there, I can find very little information on why one would want to use the daemon mode for rsync.
Here's my current rsync command line: rsync -r -progress --delete /cifs/Thecus/ /mnt/Storage/input? Is there a better way/tool to do this? Edit:Ok, to address the additional questions: The "Main" NAS is a Thecus N7700. I have additional modules installed that give me SSH, and it has rsync, but it's not in the $PATH, and I havn't figured out how to edit the local $PATH in a way that persists between reboots. The "Backup" NAS is a DIY affair, built around a 1.6Ghz Via Mobo with a Adaptec Hardware RAID card. It's running CentOS 5 with a full desktop environment. It's the hardware I'm running rsync from. (Gigabit is through a additional PCI card).
Further Edit: Ok, got rsync over SSH working (thanks, lajuette!).I had to do a bit of tweaking on my command line, I'm running rsync with the args:rsync -rum --inplace --progress --delete --rsync-path=/opt/bin/rsync sys@10.1.1.10:/raid/data/Storage /mnt/Storage (Note: I'm specifically not using -a, because I want to change the ownership to the local account, to not freak-out SELinux)

I am trying to use "find" but I can't quite get all of the switches right for it to work. I have a folder that contains many folders. Let's call that original folder "MyFiles". The subfolders contain java files (and those subfolders possibly contain subfolders that contain java files). Here is what I want to have happen:
0. Create a file to print to, call it "output.ps"
1. Find all of the Java files in the MyFiles tree.
2. For each java file that is found, append it to output.ps along with it's absolute path name.
So far I have:
find . -iname *.java
and this finds all of the java files for me. But then I can't get the files to print to a file using exec.

With Windows XP, I just right clicked a folder/directory and pressed FIND then I could search for whatever file/folder name i wanted to. I could even do custom searches based on the size, modification date etc.How do you do this on Ubuntu? There doesnt seem to be a way to easily do it like this. So far i found PLACES -> SEARCH FOR FILES but that means I have to go into the directory i want. Where as I would much rather be browsing through directories and THEN want to quickly search in a particular folder. The SEARCH FOR FILES method in PLACES just wastes more time.

I have a number of crash.log files scattered about my system and I would like to run a command to find all the crash.log files on the system and copy them to a single directory; each with a unique filename. For example, copy crash.log from ~/directory_1 , ~/directory_2 , ~/directory_3 and so on to ~/crash_logs/crash.log1 , ~/crash_logs/crash.log2 , ~/crash_logs/crash.log3 etc.

Recently I have moved to F11. While I am trying to install directFB explicitly, I am getting error related to X 11 dependencies. It could find no includes files under the directory /usr/include/x11/. But x11 libraries are available in the system. I remember that, i had these x11 include files in my F9. Do I need to install any external packages to get the x11 include files in place?

I'm trying to write a bash script which will find files then move them to a specific directory.
So far I have:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
#script to find and move files
src_dir="/path/to/source/directory"
des_dir_mov="/path/to/destination/directory/for/movies"
des_dir_img="/path/to/destination/directory/for/images"
find $src_dir -iname '*.avi' -type f -exec mv '{}' $des_dir_mov ';'
I'd like to have all the possible movie file types then the image file types checked in a loop.
Every time I try to include an array in this script it breaks

I want to run a cronjob every 15 minutes that checks a directory for files. If the directory contains more than ten files I want it to send an email to me.
All I have is this...
*/15 * * * * ls -l | wc -l | [filename] | mail -s "This is just a test" [email address]
I would rather not write a bash script. Is there an easier way to do this? I was looking into some commands like find and grep.

am trying to find a proper regex to match the two numbers in the following log entry.
Code:
15:08:16.142 INF Found 64468
15:08:16.142 ERR [Uniform test code=64469]
Basically the pattern I'm looking for will match the two different numbers spanned across two lines.Thought I need to use multi-line mode as follow but this doesn't match on [URL]...
Code:
/^($[0-9]{5}
[0-9]{5})$/m;
