Scripting help for rm log files from multiple dir
Hi,

I'm quite new to scripting and need some help. I need to have one script that will check specific directories for files older than one month and then have the script delete them.

I have written the script below but it only does one directory. I don't quite know how to make it so it checks other directories as well.

#!/bin/sh

DIR=/export/home/Scripts/Batch/Ds/edsf/archive
export DIR

cd $DIR;/usr/bin/find . -mtime +31 -type f | /usr/bin/xargs rm -rf

Any help would be appreciated.
