RE: Unix Script Quest : Urgent

I think that will give you files that it successfully accessed, but not the ones that were referenced but not found.

You can do what you're asking on VMS and NT, so it seems like there should be a way in Unix, although I asked my Unix SA's that same question a few years back and they said that there isn't. They were pretty sharp guys so I tend to believe them.

    touch BEFORE;
    ...
    find $wherever -newer ./BEFORE;

will give you a list of files that have changed since the BEFORE file. If you are sure that the files are being created (vs. modified or accessed) by one specific userid then:

    find / -newer BEFORE -user <id>

will work also.

If you are going to run the thing regularly then take a look at "find2p", which will spit out a perl script to match your find command. The perly code will give you finer control and better sanity checks (e.g., comparing to a list in memory of what has already been found to avoid dup's) than find can.

enjoi.
