First of all thanks to all to provide such valuable inputs & sharing the knowledge...
Well what i did is just waited for overnight... the confusion here was 0- i didnt mind waiting for 8 hours - but in the end - it shouldn't throw me some stupid error like so many arguments,etc n waste my 8 hours of processing.
Good thing would be - if i had changed mtime into differetn categories...
Anyways now i have a different problem. I want compress all files of 2006 - old ones.
This doesnt work -
tar -cvf find ./ -type f -mtime +1176 -print
After lots of processing - it gives me error - no such file exists..
How to get this done.. ? I got gzip as well ..but i want it to process multiple files....
Btway, how do i know - what is server O/S on which i am working ? Unix environment related info...Lots
of basic questions here!!
Once again, thanks !
