where the variable $vfile is the first parameter for the file to search and $pday is the second parameter days how old is the file
If I use the find command to find files older than n days I have to enter
find . -mtime +(n-1). I tried this on a Solaris 9 system and also Linux. Is this something that all Unix veterans know about (I'm new to Unix)? If so, maybe my man pages need to be updated (how to do this?). :confused: (4 Replies)

Hi
I've made some test with perl script to learn more about mtime...
So, my question is :

Hi guys, I am looking for a way of moving all files out of a directory with a time stamp greater then the one I specify. Can anyone suggest a way of doing so?
For example, move all files out of dir1 which were created after 17:00 into dir2.
Thanks :) (1 Reply)

nislog(1M) System Administration Commands nislog(1M)NAME
nislog - display the contents of the NIS+ transaction log
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/nislog [-h num | -t num] [-v] [directory...]
DESCRIPTION
nislog displays the contents of the NIS+ server transaction log on the standard output. This command can be used to track changes in the
namespace. The /var/nis/trans.log file contains the transaction log maintained by the NIS+ server. When updates occur, they are logged to
this file and then propagated to replicas as log transactions. When the log is checkpointed, updates that have been propagated to the
replicas are removed.
The nislog command can only be run on an NIS+ server by superuser. It displays the log entries for that server only.
If directory is not specified, the entire log is searched. Otherwise, only those logs entries that correspond to the specified directories
are displayed.
OPTIONS -h num Display num transactions from the ``head'' of the log. If the numeric parameter is 0, only the log header is displayed.
-t num Display num transactions from the ``tail'' of the log. If the numeric parameter is 0, only the log header is displayed.
-v Verbose mode.
FILES
