UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

Hello all,

I have a crontab entry to clean up a file system once a week that is used as tmp directory.

00 12 * * 0 find /mytmp -mtime +2 -exec rm {} \;

The job starts ok but I always get an error message in mails because it is a file system and there is a directory lost+found that should not be deleted. How can I delete everything but that directory? I knwo how to avoid the error message getting to mails but that's not what I am looking for.

System is HP-UX 11.23.

how about -

Code:

00 12 * * 0 find /mytmp -mtime +2  -type f  -exec rm -f {} \;
