Deletion of config backups (cronjob)

[FeG]

Hi all..

I'd like to suggest to change the cronjob which deletes old config backups under /etc/ispcp/*/backup. At the moment (RC3), this command is used:

Code:

# Remove config backups older than seven days
@daily root find /etc/ispcp/*/backup/* -maxdepth 0 -type f -mtime +7 -print | egrep '.*\.[0-9]+$' | xargs -r /bin/rm

Problem is, that - at least on my server - /etc/ispcp/*/backup/* returns to much arguments, so find failes with argument list too long.

Therefore I changed this to:

Code:

# Remove config backups older than seven days
@daily root find /etc/ispcp/*/backup/ -maxdepth 1 -type f -mtime +7 -print | egrep '.*\.[0-9]+$' | xargs -r /bin/rm

.. which should work.

Greetings,
FeG
