I should have been more explicit.
I have a directory /archive with a subdirectory by date
[root@localhost archive]# ls -l /archive
total 40
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 May 5 14:23 20160505
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 May 5 14:23 20160506
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 May 5 14:23 20160507

T oday I need to have :
/archive/20170505 ANF
/archive/20160505 ARF
Yesterday
/archive/20170504 ANF
/archive/20160504 ARF
I was looking for a way to do that without editing aide.conf daily
After my post, I found a way with
echo @@define DATE 2017-05-04| cat - /etc/aide.conf |aide -c -
and
/archive/@@{DATE} ANF
An then with
aide -B '@@define DATE 2017-05-04'
Thank you anyway for pointing ANF and ARF.
Kind regards
Philippe
