MV files from one directory structure(multiple level) to other directory structure
Hi,
I am trying to write a script that will move all the files from source directory structure(multiple levels might exist) to destination directory structure. If a sub folder is source doesnot exist in destination then I have to skip and goto next level. I also need to delete the files in destination that are older than 5days. Please do let me know ASAP if you have any solution. Thanks in advance.

DESCRIPTION
The command installs the specified object file in the given directory. The mode, owner, and group, of the destination file can be speci-

or tabs. The first name is the "official" destination (for example: The second name is the new destination. If is moved from to the entry

source are responsible for defining the "official" locations of the source.
