Re: UNIX question

Jaffar,

No ready to use example, just some hints.

1. use touch to create a file with a timestamp of 2 hours ago (see manpage of touch)
2. create a list of all logfiles (list1)
3. create a list (list2) of files newer than this file using find with the -newer option (see manpage)
4. remove elements of list2 from list1
5. rm file listed in list1

alas find has no -older function, and the -atime option works with a 'day'-unit.

Regards, Carel-Jan
