archive bit

Hi

Is there a way to generate a text file with a list of all filenames on the server whose archive bit is turned on? The OS is HPUX 11.x

Thanks

Roger,

The find command is excellent for searching the server's file systems and might be of some help to you (try a man on find). However, I'm unfamiliar with the "archive bit" so I can't be more specific. Can you explain further?

Pete

Yes, it's quite simple:

cp /dev/null archivebit.txt

You see, the answer is zero because there ain't no archive bit.

A C:\Muthu\test.txt
