I found the keyword to check the size of file in C. But I want to know how to use it.
ftp command to check the size is --> SIZE

"", "SIZE %??", RootDir, FileName,
&ctrlSock, &dataSock);
fileSize read
read(dataSock, ??, ??);

Can i do it by using df?if not , can you specify me which one to use?

example comp2.tmp
Code:
filename.pdf
filename2.zip
filename3.ttf
and so on
I have another text file called comp1.tmp which should have the same list of files in it, but does not look as pretty
example comp1.tmp
Code:
someothertext here ...... 10/30/2009 ...... filename.pdf

Using bash, is it possible to get the average file size of each file in a directory of ~2000 files?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have the following which works but think there must be a easier one-liner way of doing this which involves not writing to a file but have failed to find something that works This is what I have:
Code:
du -m $i > filesize.txt
FILESIZE=$`cat "filesize.txt" | cut -f1
rm filesize.txt
I then use the FILESIZE to compare to a number.
I have created a file with a pre-defined size as follows:
Code:
#define FILEPATH "testfile"
#define FILESIZE 16

The check on the size of a file I perform in a tcsh script does not work. The size of my file is the following :
ls -l File.gpg
-rw-r--r-- 1 xuo users 3354637392 2011-05-07 15:31 File.gpg
The script is the following :
#!/bin/tcsh -f

foreach file ($listOfEncryptFiles)

I am in need of a way to check that the same file exists within two different directories using a filename as a variable. Here is the process which requires it: The script is reaches out (via ftp) and pulls down a file(s) and delete it afterwards. This is halfhazard because in the instance it doesnt pull down the file, yet still deletes it, we are up a creek. I am looking to pull it down to a temp location and then verify that file exists in the location in which it needs to be present to process before deleting it, adding a little extra layer for security. The script itself is finished.If I put a file name in manually it works perfect. I just need a way to pump the filename into the variable.

It is capable of keeping 10 files at a time in dir called /db/sis/log1.txt. I want to copy the log1.txt to another directory when ever it generating by attaching the time stamp to it for the back-up purpose. this files will be there for a period of 24 hours. after that the back-up dir should be cleared and it start copying again the fresh file from the same dir.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI need a script that dose the following checks if files exists by read input from a file then compares them to the files listed in the directory if they don’t exists the script would report back which file dose not exists. I also need to format the output so that files are grouped in different groups, group A, B, and C and etc based on file name. I would like the output of that do not exists files to be sorted based on second number in the file name than group according. I understand some of the basics of bash scripting something along of the lines of a loop and if statements might do the trick. Below is what I have so far. I don’t car so much about the script reporting back the file exists I prefer to only know if the file is missing and is less than 3 days old. Problem is if a file dose not exists in the reports file the test compares against the wrong file.
Group A
Foo22000.tar.gz
Foo22010.tar.gz
Group B
foo25000.tar.gz
foo25100.tar.gz

View 4 Replies View RelatedI was going to back up some files to a DVD so I loaded a new blank in the drive and waited for it to come ready. I decided that now was a good time to fill up my drink and left the computer for a while. When I got back about 30 minutes later, I noticed that the drive was still cycling and had not become ready. I finally got the process killed and tried another blank, which worked. Then I went on about my business.
The next day, the machine hung up on boot with Dmesg saying that it was starting the syslog daemon, but that was as far as it would go till it dropped to the maintenance shell after a few minutes. Multiple boots always did the same thing.
After considerable troubleshooting, I noticed that the syslog file was at the maximum size - about 2.5 gig I think - and was full of DVD drive errors. Deleting the file fixed the problem.
Just to test, I built a phony syslog file to the maximum size and installed it in /var/log. Bang - same problem.
So... It appears that the system logger doesn't test for max size overflow either during runtime or during boot. Interestingly, I googled up one hit for the same problem from a couple of years ago, also on Debian, but nothing in the debian.org problem lists.
Is there any other way to check the overall size of the hard disk other than just fdisk -l? This is because the cloud server that my company has purchased is supposed to have 50GB of hard disk size,It shows that it has two SCSI drives, only both summing up to 50GBs. So what is the second SCSI drive, and why is it divided that way? dev/sda and dev/sdb???
View 1 Replies View Relatedi want to close the program if the content of the file /tmp/file_name is 1 (just the number 1).
dont need to check all the time, just when start the program.
something like this:
Code:
"read the /tmp/file_name"
"check if the content of the file_name is 1"
"if not, do something"
what i need is very simple to do in shell script:
Code:
go=`cat /tmp/file_test` # "cat /tmp/file_test" read the content of the file_test
if [ "$go" -eq "1" ]; then # if the content of the file_test is 1
echo "ok, ready to exit now"; # now i can put the exit command
fi
but i dont know how to do the same thing in C...

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am curious if perhaps I am doing something wrong extracting pages from a pdf doc using pdftk and creating a new file. I am only extracting the odd pages from the file and outputting them to a new file that is now only 20 pages instead of the input's 40 pages, yet the new output file is still 1.4Mb in size, the same as the original.
It seems strange to extract only half the pages of a large document and end up with a result that is the same size. how to streamline the resulting pdf's using pdftk?
BTW this is the command I am using, in case perhaps I am missing an option to optimize file size or something:
Code:
pdftk A=ch15.pdf cat A1-40odd output odd.pdf
I'm researching about symbolic links been used with samba / CIFS:I'd like that the user that uses a MS-Windows OS could see my shared folder on CentOS 5 and the symbolic links that are inside this folder. Well, it works but, the user will see that the size of the file is bigger than the real file. Apparently, CIFS gets the size of the symbolic link (aproxim.32K) and add it to the size of the file.Example 1: 100KB file, used with shared folder, MS-Windows's user will see 100KBExample 2: 100KB file, used with symbolic link inside a shared folder, MS-Windows's user will see 132KB. (Sym link + size of file)Is there a way to allow the user only see the size of the file, and not the file + symbolic links ?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI was just testing specifying limit on file size to a user and have added the following to /etc/security/limits.conf bob soft fsize 100 This basically should have said not to allow bob to create anyfile greater than 100Kb in size.
But the interesting thing is, if bob already has any file which is greater than 100Kb in size, it even doesn't allow to log him into the system both from console and SSH. Also nothing is logged in logs.. How do I configure it so that, bob can login to the system even though he has any file greater than 100Kb (but doesn't allow him to create file which are greater than 100Kb) ??
