Dear all,
Can you please help me on this?
I want to backup my bash_history monthly before it gets cleared.
How do I make the script?

#!/bin/bash cd cp .bash_history .bash_history.old

Then run as a cron job (kcron is good for those who want a GUI for cron).

Of course this will result in the previous .bash_history.old file being deleted, but I assume you don't mind that. If you want records going back more than a month, use a date variable.

Sir Robin
