Script to delete files with an input for directories and an input for path/file
Hello,
I'm trying to figure out how best to approach this script, and I have very little experience, so I could use all the help I can get.
I regularly need to delete files from many directories.
A file with the same name may exist any number of times in different subdirectories.
When I perform the deletion, I will have a list of the upper level directories I want to delect the file path from, and a list of pathed files I want to delete from those directories only.
What would be the best way to set this up with the two input files?
For example, I need to delete:
from
But I want files with the same names elsewhere to be left alone.
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated!

Hi,
I'm looking to delete some files from directories.
I've just put in a file the location of these files.
e.g:
in file supprs.txt there is:
/usr/host/t1.txt
/etc/dev/u1.java
/home/new/files/view.c
Is it possible to take this file "supprs.txt" as a parameter in a shell command ? (2 Replies)

nfexpire(1)nfexpire(1)NAME
nfanon - netflow anonymisation
SYNOPSIS
nfanon [options]
DESCRIPTION
nfanon is used to anonymise all IP addresses ( src, dst, next hop, router IP etc. ) in the netflow records using the CryptoPAn (Cryptogra-
phy-based Prefix-preserving Anonymization) module. The key -K is used to initialize the Rijndael cipher. The key is either a 32 character
string, or a 64 hex digit string starting with 0x.
See http://www.cc.gatech.edu/computing/Telecomm/cryptopan/ for more information about CryptoPAn.
nfanon has several modes of operation.
o nfanon reads a sequence of input files, specified by -r, -R and -M and anonymises the flows in the given files. The input file arguments
have the same syntax and meaning as nfdump(1).
o nfanon reads a sequence of input files, specified by -r, -R and -M. All anonymised flows are written to a single file specified by -w.
o nfanon works as filter and reads flows from stding and writes the anonymised flows to stdout.
OPTIONS -r inputfile
Read input data from inputfile. Default is read from stdin.
-R expr
Read input from a sequence of files in the same directory. expr may be one of:
/any/dir Read recursively all files in directory dir.
/dir/file Read all files beginning with file.
/dir/file1:file2 Read all files from file1 to file2.
Note: files are read in alphabetical sequence.
-M expr
Read input from multiple directories. expr looks like: /any/path/to/dir1:dir2:dir3 etc. and will be expanded to the directories:
/any/path/to/dir1, /any/path/to/dir2 and /any/path/to/dir3 Any number of colon separated directories may be given. The files to read are
specified by -r or -R and are expected to exist in all the given directories. The options -r and -R must not contain any directory part
when used in conjunction with -M.
-w outputfile
If specified writes anonymised netflow records to outputfile.
-K key
The key is used to initialize the Rijndael cipher. key is either a 32 character string, or a 64 hex digit string starting with 0x.
RETURN VALUE
Returns
0 No error.
255 Initialization failed.
250 Internal error.
NOTES
None.
