Quote:
Hi,

I have a configuration file name (tar_config2.sh)which has the following enteries ....

Quote:
10 /home/admin/files /home/admin/output
here
10 represents days(mofification time),
/home/admin/files represents source folder from where the files will be picked up
/home/admin/output represents whwre the files will be kept so it is a sort of destination


I was planning to move files as per the modification time (10 days) from the source folder(files) location to the destination (output),I want my main script file should read my this configuration file(tar_config2.sh) and take parameters from that...could you please suggest me what will be the command inside my main script file..?
