Shell Programming and Scripting

MYPATH="/clocal/mqbrkrs/user/mqsiadm/xyz/"
find "$MYPATH" -type f -amin -1 > tempfind.txt

In the above path I want to find the files which has been viewed/opened/touched/modified by any user in past 1 minute.
Viewed/opened/touched means file contents has been opened using more/cat/tail/head etc. commands.

find command that i am using, it shows the name of the file in which i have written the script (Means the script file only).

I have already checked the man find.
Can you guide me on this !!

Thanks !!

your syntax seems correct, i.e. find files accessed "-amin = File was last accessed n minutes ago." "-n for less than n" at this location, which probably means that in this path there is only one file.

Thanks for the reply..
But then, say I have 10 files in a directory and i am putting the same find command to search the files which have been accessed in past 1 minute by any user in a group. Then how can i come to know who has accessed that file and who belongs to that group ?

I know that command given by me was right, but it was giving me the name of that file in which script has been written, i.e. the script file name only.

Can you help me in finding the files which has been accessed by some users in past a minute (User can belongs to a group)?

Thnks !!

I need* the SOLUTION to this problem..

Please help !!

I am not sure it will help or not

Just have a look on "fuser" command with -u option .. for more look into "man fuser"

Hey sanjay,

fuser i have also used and checked in manual.
But i dont know why its not working for the files.
Its working for the directories. And it shows the process no. and the user name but does't show that the process no. belongs to which file that has been accessed by the user.


YOu can look into Unix Advanced and Expert forum in the same site...where you'll find the more dicsussions on the fuser command, the query is posted by myself only, with title "inode table location" !! For your initerest please it.
