# Delete local backups older than 5 days find ${BACKUP_DIR} -name ${BACKUP_PREFIX}_'*' -mtime +5 -exec rm -f {} \; this might work -steve -----Original Message----- From: psyche-list-admin@redhat.com [mailto:psyche-list-admin@redhat.com]On Behalf Of Dan de Haan Sent: Tuesday, November 26, 2002 11:57 AM To: psyche-list@redhat.com 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 Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
