Subject: checking file date/time
Can anyone help me with - or point me to a resource - about checking
file date/time with perl? I need to write a small script that i can run
with cron and will e-mail me if a particular file is older than 2 days.
The file in question is supposed to be refreshed daily but sometimes our
linkage breaks down without us knowing.
Thanks!
