this might work -steve -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Dan de Haan Sent: Tuesday, November 26, 2002 11:57 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Shell Scripting Question. I have a simple shell script that runs from cron and makes a backup of some filed to another PC via NFS. I want to have it automatically delete old backups form the NFS server. How would I do that, is there a delete files older then N days command? -Dan -- Psyche-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list -- Psyche-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
