Full Discussion: Patern Match Question on file names
Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Patern Match Question on file names Post 302247418 by jim mcnamara on Wednesday 15th of October 2008 05:06:16 PM

Code:
find /opt/Weblogic/servers/Server1/ -type f \ 
      \( -iname  '*.log'  -o  -iname '*.log.[:digit:][:digit:][:digit:]*' \)
       ! -newer /tmp/archive/REF

Try using limited sq bracket pattern matching - I used posix, you could use [0-9] instead of [:digit:]
