General :: List Only Today Modifed Files In Ubuntu?
Dec 30, 2010
How to list only today modify files in Linux ? How to 'scp' the today updated or modified files to another server? How to list files with modified date in Linux ? Currently am using UBUNTU 10.04
I have backup_server and application_server.backup_server has directory AAA. I need to check from application serverthat is there any new files created today in the AAA dirctory. if yes, all files were created today or partial files?.
I am trying to get this script to work. The purpose is to download a list of modules from the slax.org the list consist of a list of module numbers. What I am trying to do is Download the file or the file name corresponding to the number in the list.the list is comma delimited. this is what I have done so far and I am a stand still.
#!/bin/sh # Wget script to retrieve modules from slax.org modules # # ----Begin of user defined values ----- # Path to wget
I have some files located in /vol0/archives that has several files Eg:- arch_00001.arc , arch_00002.arc, arch_00003.arcI want to tar each of those files into separate tar ball by taking it garbing it file name sequence,Eg:- arch_00001.arc.tar.gz , arch_00002.arc.tar.gz, arch_00003.arc tar.gzhow do I define the tar command to go get those files and tar each file separately, As I mention above
I am trying to use the at command to run a script file. The test was quite simple, wanted to run today and every 2 days.Here is the at command:at 15:20 today + 2 days -f every2daysDo.shHere is the script:echo "every2daysDo.sh ran on $(date)" >> /home/stacy/attest.logI see the 'output' of the echo command in my log file on today+2 days, but not on the day that I start it.
untar a bunch of files located in different folders, with folder deep unkown.Found an old post about this matter but the suggestion extracts all files in the same folder (your current).I wan't to extract files to the same folder as the tar file.The solution from the old post (extracts all files to current folder)find . -name "*.tar" -exec tar xvf {}
So I was wondering, if I capture this output into a file (ie. one file per line), can anyone help me write a command which iterates through the file and moves the files one by one to a specified directory?
I'm using ubuntu (natty), and when I use ls -l, the files are listed, but apparently the sorting algo ignores any special characters. For ages I've used underscores to mark special folders. And it seems to me, that they were always listed first. Now, the underscore is completely ignores. Let's assume that I have the files fileA, _fileB and fileC in a folder. Currently, ls -l orders them like so:
What I would like to do is to print the contents of all text files in a particular directory, recursively. Problem being that there are directories and possibly binaries scattered around in the filesystem as well.
Trying cat * works as long as there are no directories in there, but when there are it gives an error instead and prints nothing.
I'm sure it's easy using file -f or something but I can't figure it!
When I try to list files in directory. I am getting i/o error #ls -l /test I am getting i/o error. Why I am getting this error and what are these i/o errors.
I want to know how much damage a user can do on my system if he decides to delete everything (or write to in case of corruption).What command or script might i use to check this?
I want to list recursively all files in given direcotry, with their fullpath and their timestamps.Something like this:10:30 Dec 10 2010 /tmp/mydir/myfileI've tryied with:find . -type f -exec ls -la {} ;but that don't give me the fullpath.
I have a file with joker character patterns: ./include/* ./src/* etc. From the current directory I would like to recursively get the list of files that do not match these patterns.
Given a single SMB network share (for example, \server\SHARED_FOLDER), I want to recursively list all the files, including those in the subdirectories (like find(1)).
I would prefer to do it in Linux, but I also accept Windows answers.
Is there any Linux application for finding the folders with the most number of files? baobab sorts folders by their total size, I'm looking for a tool that lists folders by the total number of files in it.
The reason I'm looking is because copying tens of thousands of small files is excruciatingly slow (much slower than copying a few large files of the same size), so I want to archive or delete those folders with high file counts that that will be slowing down the copying (it won't speed things up now, but it would be faster when I need to move/copy it again in the future).
How to find and list files and directories present the current directory which were created in, say, years 2005, 2006, and 2009 and then move them to some other location, for example, /backup. Yes, I need to list them and move simultaneously. We can use:
Code:
find . -mtime n {};
but that n is troublesome for me to figure out files/directories created in years 2005, 2006, and 2009, for instance. Is there any way to match exactly by Year Value rather than calulating the "n" (days * 24 Hours)?
I'm looking for a way to produce a list of all the directories in the current working directory sorted by the total number of files that are contained with them.
Initially I though that Nautilus could be used for this, but then I realised it doesn't count files in the sub directories.
The best I've got for a command line solution so far is this
Code:
The use case for this is a situation where a user has a quota applied to their home directory which limits the number of files they are allowed to have and they have exceeded that limit.
I am trying to add a line of text to hgrc files for Mercurial Repo'sThe file is found normally in a hidden .hg directory under the repo.I need to add a "deny_read = username" to the end of each of these hgrc files. Suggestions either in shell script format, or a single line?
