Ubuntu :: Find Log Files And Delete Them Based On Age?

I want find a bunch of log files and delete ones that are older than say 5 days. Ideally I would then like to add this my crontab to run once a day.

The log files are in /var/log and are owned by root. They have a standard naming convention which is [date]RootCronRsync-backupHOME.log An example file is 20100621RootCronRsync-backupHOME.log Trying to put together a bash script to do this I think I need something like

Code: find /var/log/ -name *RootCronRsync-backupHOME.log -mtime +5 -exec rm {} ; However if I try this without the -exec rm (ie to see if I can find the right files first) I get the following error find: paths must precede expression: 20090405RootCronRsync-backupHOME.log Usage: find [-H] [-L] [-P] [-Olevel] [-D help|tree|search|stat|rates|opt|exec] [path...] [expression]
