worked perfectly. thanks guys!

one last question on this:

Code:
find /var/log -name "*.test*" -exec du -m {} \;

how do i add a second command to the above so it also includes the number of seconds ago that each file was last modified?

something like:

Code:
find /var/log -name "*.test*" -exec du -m {} \; -exec perl -le "print ((stat '${eachFile}')[9])"

Another issue i'm having is, i need to catch files that breach the warning and critical thresholds by issuing only one find command. currently, im running two separate find sessions, one for warning, the other for critical. i'd like to be able to combine them into one.

what im currently doing is:

Code:
warning=`find /var/log -name "*test.log*" -size +20000c -amin -1440 -exec du -m {} \; 2>/dev/null`
critical=`find /var/log -name "*test.log*" -size +60000c -amin -1440 -exec du -m {} \; 2>/dev/null`

any ideas?
