Hi I am very new to linux. I want to run a cronjob every 15 minutes that checks a directory for files. If the directory contains more than ten files I want it to send an email to me.
All I have is this...
I would rather not write a bash script. Is there an easier way to do this? I was looking into some commands like find and grep
Thanks,
LN
