Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting find files from the past 7 days Post 302244172 by deepakgang on Tuesday 7th of October 2008 11:01:48 AM

thanks for that.

I cant use the find command as i dont have the acces to the directory. The directory is accessed by ftp. I ftp to the remote machine and get the listing from the directory into this particular file. And then from this file I need to filter out files older than 7 days. So I think only way is to use the file.

In that case the timestamp method might be the way left I guess...

Hi Photon - I have little knowlegde about perl so I cant understand what your script does. I think its opening the directory and taking each file and checking for conditions. But can that be done with the contents of a file?

Thanks again for your help
