Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers moving files prior to 2 days Post 302073049 by roderashe on Tuesday 9th of May 2006 10:38:52 PM

When I use this for my script I get a bunch of errors. I thought I could use Xargs but I get this:

usage: mv [-f | -i | -n] [-v] source target
mv [-f | -i | -n] [-v] source ... directory

Here's my code:

find /home/pavi/logs/ -mtime +21 -exec ls {} \; | xargs mv /home/pavi

Any thoughts? Thanks.
