Hello all,
Thank you very much for your replies.
scottro:
I am having trouble getting your command to work.
I tried inputting into CRON
30 * * * * cd /usr/path && /usr/bin/find ./-type f -mtime +7 -exec rm -f '{}'+
and
30 * * * * cd /usr/path /usr/bin/find ./-type f -mtime +7 -exec rm -f '{}'+
and nothing seems to happen.
I have also tried simply typing the command on the command line and I get dropped into a > prompt where I do not seem to be able to do anything. Or it says "find: -exec: no terminating ";" "
I tried adding a ; but that didnt seem to help.
I am not sure if I am doing something wrong, if cron is not running for root??? or what could be up.
Oh and I setup cron by: crontab -u root -e
Help would be greatly appreciated.
