Easy Checkup Script

crusher · #1 (**permalink**) 03-23-2009

Hi,

I am planning the following to do. On my linux system I've got different users in the /home/ directory. These users have file limitations.

So every user below the /home/ directory should get a text file in a seperate folder /home/$user/files/ which tells him how many files he is already using.

For example:

Code:

Dear User, you are currently using X files in the Linux System. Please be aware that the permissions for you is set to 100 files.

The X for the files I know how to get:

Code:

find /home/directory -type f | wc -l

But some little problems are still unclear for me.

1. How can look like a functionality which do the file creation including the Message for every directory in the /home/ directory?

2. How can I own the files to the related user? witch chown?

3. The file should have an automated filename with numbers with different numbers per User, how can I realise this?

If you can help me this will be greatful.
