Ubuntu :: Search For File Modified At Specific Time
Aug 20, 2010How do you find a file modified March 17, 2010, between 3:30 pm and 4:05 pm? I know that I must be missing something somewhere.How do you search for info like this? I goggled "search files time Linux" and got about 38,300,000 results. I looked through the first four pages and did not see what I was looking for.Do I need to calculate how many minutes ago that is and give that to find.I really want to do this in the GUI so that I can operate on the files found without typing in so much stuff.

Jul 24, 2010I need to search a bunch of files in a specific folder for a specific number and add all the numbers together to a total sum. I use Rsync everyday, everytime I run rsync i get a logfile (rsync output) witch contains the textstring "Total bytes sent: xxxxxx".

Jan 18, 2011How do I recursively generate a text file which has a list of all files on my server which contain a specific string anywhere in the files?
I know the following command can be used to replace a string recursively

I do not want to replace the string, I just want a list of all files which contain the string.

Oct 27, 2009Is there an app or find parameter that can search for video files using a specific (DivX for example) encoding?

View 10 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Upload Only Modified Files To FTP Server
May 23, 2011I want to upload files from my computer to an FTP site and I don't want to upload files that are already on the server. So I need a tool that finds out which local files that are different from the ones on the server, or that don't exists on the server.
Some requirements:
I'm using a cheap provider that does not support rsync or ssh, so I can only use FTP. I generate the files before uploading them, so comparing timestamps is meaningless. I've tried lftp with the mirror command. It's slow (I think it uploads all the files). I upload the files from different computers, so I can't use sitecopy, which uses a local database to keep track of which files are on the server. I'd like to be able to upload all changed files with one command. Preferably no GUI application. And it needs to run in Ubuntu.
I was thinking about creating a tool similar to sitecopy, but which stores checksums of all the files on the FTP server on the server itself. But then I thought that there may already be such a tool.

Software :: Using Find To Only Search Specific Directories?
Jan 9, 2010how the "-prune" option works. I've searched quite a bit on line, and as far as I can tell, "-prune" works exactly the opposite as it says.
I'm using Apt-proxy, and I want to scan through the folders, and find files that end with "*.bz2" The problem is that the search takes a while because of all the "*.deb" files. Fortunately, they're stored in their own folder:
/var/cache/apt-proxy/ubuntu
/var/cache/apt-proxy/ubuntu-security
/var/cache/apt-proxy/partner
each have two folders:

Red Hat :: List Modified Configuration Files [ CentOS 5.4 ]?
Feb 20, 2010I am searching for a program which may be used in order to display a list of modified (non-distribution-default) configuration files. For example, assume we have installed package "example-utility" which uses /etc/example-utility.conf as one of its configuration files. The package provides a default configuration file upon its installation. Assume we have modified /etc/example-utility.conf according to our needs. This file should be included in the listing produced by the program I am looking for.
If such a tool does not exist, I would like to create it. However, I am new to RPM-based systems, and, as such, I am having difficulties finding the necessary documentation. Should I be reading the yum source code? Is there some sort of document describing the package database on RH/CentOS/etc. systems and how 3rd party applications are supposed to work with this database?
General :: Ubuntu 10.10 - How To Search For Files
Feb 1, 2011find a file or content by name recursively similar to the ms-windows function search with Linux? I can do find . | grep test.html suspecting it's not the best.
For instance, running find . | grep terms.htmlgives my expected result while locate terms.html doesn't even though locate gets updated db - it might have to do with that it's an USB stick the file is on?

View 3 Replies View RelatedFedora :: Script For Collecting Metadata On Modified Files
Nov 30, 2010I have a simple scripting question. I am trying to list all files that have been modified in the last day and then collect metadata on those files. This command is going to be run on a number of nodes via ssh so I would like to append the hostname to start of each line (the below example has blade1 as the hostname). As you can see the loop is splitting the ls command out onto a separate line for each value. What I need to do is keep the `ls -ld` output all on one line and have the hostname echoed in front of each line.
for i in `find /var -mtime -1 | xargs ls -ld`; do echo `hostname` $i; done
blade1 drwxr-xr-x.
blade1 2
blade1 user
blade1 group
blade1 4096
blade1 Nov
blade1 30
blade1 08:55
blade1 /var/cache/gdm/user
Ubuntu :: Backup NTFS Files Modified After A Certain Date?
May 14, 2010I clone my entire notebook hdd once a month to a USB drive with an identical disk once a month using dd. I would like to find a way to automatically or manually do incremental backups at shorter intervals.
The first problem is that my incremental backup drive is not the same as my full backup drive (which is my clone). Is there some way to backup or copy all files on a document partition modified after a certain date?
The second problem is that my document partition is NTFS-3G. I guess this could be done pretty easily using "dump" if I stored my docs on ext. [I don't because I want to make sure that my docs are accessible from any machine (say in an Internet cafe) should my MacBook die and I need to rip out the hard drive and run to do my homework on another system; that is why I keep my docs on my Vista partition].
