Hi there,

i need someone to help me with a little sh script i have to run in my
machine:

each day a process generates more than 5000 archives in a directory and
i need to move all the archives (1 day old) to another directory, and
make a tar file with them; if the archives have a name like this:
*YYYYMMDD*, how do i create a script that moves them and make a tar
with this format *YYYYMMDD*.tar ???

tks
Mabus

net etiquette/Newsgroup tip:

Multi-posting is considered antisocial on Usenet.

If you want to send the same message to more than one newsgroup, CROSSPOST!
And if you crosspost, provide a Followup newsgroup.

Some will argue that you not even crosspost because of the amount/type
of newsgroups that we have today.

As an example to post to "comp.os.linux.security", and
"alt.security", use the following Newsgroups line:
Newsgroups: comp.os.linux.security,alt.security
Followup-To: comp.os.linux.security

See http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/usenet/xpost.html

You conserve resources on NNTP servers, and other readers
see the follow up answers and do not have to provide the same answer.
Also, once a reader has "read" a message in one group, they do
not have to see it again unless someone has provided a follow up.

See answer in the other group you posted to.
