I have a quick & dirty question on directory management, and I'd like to whip up a solution once, and reuse as necessary.
There is a directory structure, in which I want to tar up X number of directories every year. Here is the structure: / - |- a | - 2003 | - 2004 | - 2005 | - 2006 | - 2007 |- b | - 2003 | - 2004 | - 2005 | - 2006 | - 2007 ..z etc. What I need to do is have a script that can pollute a text file with the full path to each directory that is < 2005. I only need the directory names, not the files within. The results will be read via another process, which will proceed to tar/gz those dirs, remove the originals, and dump the tarballs to other media. (This piece is complete, I just need to get the names). I'm thinking File::Find, as well as just a standard Unix find . -type f -maxdepth, but for the current moment, I'm drawing blanks in midst of several other things I'm trying to do. Essentially, I need the following populated to a file: /a/2003 /a/2004 /b/2003 /b/2004 ...etc. I can provide code, but to be honest, I am working so hard on developing module subroutines for RADIUS accounting/billing management, I'm just hoping for an easy one-liner....(sorry).
