Files generated by a particular user
Hi

I have the following files generated by different users on a directory

Code:
-rw-rw-r--   1 NAME1  database03    809 Nov 17 10:41 PCAS_CARD_TRANS_OFF.1111171041.lg
-rw-rw-r--   1 richard  ccsdba   10968411 Nov 17 10:43 load_123_RX0_0.1111171016.lg
-rw-rw-r--   1 DEV  db03   10713 Nov 17 10:10 CO0101_8066.1111171009.lg
-rw-rw-r--   1 richard  ccsdba    6457 Nov 17 10:09 CO02_8066.1111171009.lg

What is the command that I need to use to display the files generated by only the user 'richard' . The sample output looks like the following:

Code:
-rw-rw-r--   1 richard  ccsdba   10968411 Nov 17 10:43 load_123_RX0_0.1111171016.lg
-rw-rw-r--   1 richard  ccsdba    6457 Nov 17 10:09 CO02_8066.1111171009.lg

Thanks

you can use find command to find the files by access or modification date
so use find command with
Code:
-exec

followed by
Code:
 
ls -ltr | grep 'Nov 16'

this may help you

not really sure with the exact command will test and let you know if possible
