What do you consider "larger file"? You can always use 'find' with the '-size' option. See the find man page for details.

Hello eli.
You could try:
find /tmp -size +10000 -print

This command will find all file larger than 10,000 bytes in filesystem /tmp

Hi,

Please use the following command which will give you the output of the largest file under the given hierarchy...

find / | xargs ls -ld | sort -nrk5 | more

Daniel,

If you are planning to check for the biggest files within a filesystem you need to use the command

find "filesystem name" -xdev -size "value" -print

Hopes this information will lead you to your answer

Thanks
Ishwar
