IMHO, yes. Carefully choose the age of the files to be cleaned up and a
script like this should work pretty fine:
#!/bin/bash
# AxKit Cache Directory
CACHEDIR=/opt/apache/cache
# Maximum age of files (30 days here)
MAXAGE=30
# You may prefer -mtime instead of -ctime here...
find $CACHEDIR -type f -ctime +$MAXAGE -exec rm -f {} \;
# The end
Please note that I'm writing this directly into the e-mail and I didn't
test it before writing. Running this script on a daily or weekly basis
should help to keep the cache clean from older files. It's not the best
criteria, but it may help :-)
My 2 cents ;)
