can someone please help me i need this for my school.

How can i calculate how many users have home directories over a specific size and flag those users in the report, or list all files in /tmp that are over 60 days old

here's the script the base script

#!/bin/bash

# diskwatch.sh
# script to create/mail disk reports

echo -e "From: Disk Usage Monitor <devnull@localhost>
Subject: Disk usage on / on `date`
To: <root@localhost>

FILESYSTEM USAGE:
`/bin/df`

USAGE IN /home:
`/bin/du -h -s /home/*`

USAGE IN /tmp:
`/bin/du -h -s /tmp`
" | /usr/sbin/mail root

i dont know how to upgrade it to calculate how many users have home directories over a specific size and flag those users in the report, or list all files in /tmp that are over 60 days old

Thanks in advance

Hi,

and homework questions aren't permitted. Have a look
at finds man-page .... for the count of home-directories also
look at the tool wc

man find
/size

man find
/ctime



Cheers,

If you don't use the -h option on "du", it will be much easier to compare the home-dir size to a specific size.
