I've been having some odd issues with find where the order of the filters
mattered.
try to put -mtime before -name and see if that helps

Didn't know if anyone else has run across this, but I spent 1.5 hours
trying to get a tried and true find command to work on RHEL4 (32-bit)
without success.
I wanted to delete the audit files in $ORACLE_BASE/admin/<SID>/
adump that were older than 60 days. It shouldn't be rocket science
or so I thought.
the command was
find $ORACLE_BASE/admin/<SID>/adump -name "ora*.aud" -mtime +60
It was supposed to have " -exec rm {} \;", but I never got that far
because it wouldn't return any files.
i could use -60 and it would return files less than 60 days, but "+"
failed to return anything. I tried ctime as well, but nothing.
man and google didn't return anything.
Anybody run across this before?
I thought I'd ask before writing a perl script. Does anyone have any
one-line perl scripts before I write a longer one?
Thanks,
steve
