Script to find file types and info
I'm looking for a way to inventory files on a webserver into a CSV file, and am particularly interested in certain types of files, like .php, .cgi, .pl, .py, .sh, etc. but also want the ability to find all files, including those with no extension, or specified extensions, as above, including files that have spaces or unusual characters or line returns in their names.
I saw the post here:
File Inventory Scan
which had a script that mostly worked and provided good info about the files it found, but couldn't handle files with spaces in their names (last column printed "cannot open: No such file or directory").
Ideally this script would also have columns for file user/group ownership, permissions, access, create and modification times, human readable file size, etc.
I'm on a Solaris 11 machine. I may have the ability to install packages if required.

DESCRIPTION
rinse is a simple script which is designed to be able to install
a minimal working installation of an RPM-based distribution into
a directory.
The tool is analogous to the standard Debian GNU/Linux debootstrap
utility.
USAGE
To use this script you will need to be root. This is required
to mount /proc, run chroot, and more.
Basic usage is as simple as:
rinse --distribution fedora-core-6 --directory /tmp/test
This will download the required RPM files and unpack them into
a minimal installation of Fedora Core 6.
To see which RPM files would be downloaded, without actually
performing an installation or downloading anything, then you
may run the following:
rinse --distribution fedora-core-6 --print-uris
TODO
Short of supporting more distributions or architectures there aren't
really any outstanding issues.
