Question scan direcotries
Hi

I am new to this forum, and glad to be a part of it here after. I have an intersting issue for which I need suggestions of you great minds.

I am in process a building a shell script which should scan a directory for a specified amount of time and prepare a list of all the files that were created in that time.

lets say at the fist scan of 100 sec, there were three files created in $HOME/mydir/

it should prepare a file with this list: some thing like below.
test1.dat
test2.dat
test3.dat

At the second run of the script, lets say 5 more files are created then it should update the previous file list with these latest 5 files (excluding the last three): some thing like below.
test4.dat
test5.dat
test6.dat
test7.dat
test8.dat

File naming conventions can be any thing, but the extension of all the files would be the same.

Any Ideas let me know: email id removed

Thanks
Nag

mdns-scan

MDNS-SCAN(1)						      General Commands Manual						      MDNS-SCAN(1)

NAME

       mdns-scan - Scan for mDNS/DNS-SD services published on the local network

SYNOPSIS

       mdns-scan

DESCRIPTION

       mdns-scan  is  a  tool  for  scanning for mDNS/DNS-SD published services on the local network. It issues a mDNS PTR query to the special RR
       _services._dns-sd._udp.local for retrieving a list of all currently registered services on the local link.

OPTIONS

       mdns-scan has no commandline options.

NOTES

       mdns-scan is not a good mDNS citizen since it queries continuously for services and doesn't implement features like Duplicate  Suppression.
       It is intended for usage as a debugging tool only.

       mdns-scan  is incomplete since it doesn't resolve mDNS services for you - it just dumps their PTR RRs. To understand these records you need
       minimal knowledge of DNS-SD and how it works.

       mdns-scan does not terminate on its own behalf. It scans for services continuously until the user kills it by pressing C-c.

       mdns-scan does not rely on a local mDNS responder daemon. It has no dependencies besides the GNU libc. It has been tested on Linux only.

       mdns-scan does NOT scan for local mDNS enabled hosts or A/AAAA RRs, it scans for DNS-SD registered services, nothing else.
