Earlier I posted an article about finding file that are owned by a specific users. But I frequently use the find command in combination with the -exec option.

As a reminder to my self, find file and remove them:

find [PATH] -name “[FILE]” -mtime +[DAYS] -exec rm {} \;

This is very powerfull when you want to clean up old logging.

Or if you want to move / rename several files in a directory just do:

find * -exec mv ‘{}’ blah_’{}’_blah \;
