Hi,

Can someone help me with this script ....

I need a ksh script, which will search for a specific file (lets say abc.txt) in a directory , if file not found sleep for 10 mins and search again, if still not found sleep again for 10 mins and so on .... it should search for that file for 3 hours and if that file is still not found, then it should send a e-mail.

Appriciate your help with this ...

Thanks,
Sant
