monitoring dirs

Hi there,

Presently using du -ks and storing all directory summaries manually. Is there any other way or easier way to accomplish monitoring directories and check everyday/week for updates on particular dirs that I am interested in.
Automation of this functionality maybe?

Write all the commands that you use to get the summary in a shell script, then make sure that the script works. Run this script using cron. You can send the summary by e-mail to the interested people.
