NPURGE: Network Purge V1.1
This program is a replacement for the Novell 386 purge program. It purges
deleted files from the system based on age of deletion.
Syntax:
npurge [-d <days>] [-h <hours>] [-m <minutes>] [-f] [-s] [-r] [<root>]
-d <days> Specify target age in days
-h <hours> Specify target age in hours
-m <minutes> Specify target age in minutes
-f Force file times to midnight (use with -d)
-s Process Subdirectories
-r Report only, do not purge files
<root> The root directory at which to start the process.
Requirements:
Novell 386 version (including 3.11)
The program must be run from a network drive.
The logged on user must have access rights to purge the files found
or the message "DENIED" will appear in front of files that cannot
be purged.
Remarks:
Unless the -f option is used the age of a file is calculated up to the
second. If you specify -d 1 then files that are 24 hours old or greater
are purged. If you use the -f option to force file dates to midnight
then the time of deletion becomes unimportant, just the date of deletion
matters.
The -d, -h and -m parameters are additive. Specifying -d 1 -m 10 sets the
target age to 1 day and 10 minutes.
There are no longer a default run, you must specify command line arguments.
Examples:
npurge -d 2 -s \
Will purge all files there we're deleted 48 or more hours ago.
npurge -d 7 -f -s \
Will purge all files that we're deleted 7 or more days ago (regardless
of the actual time of purge, only the date matters with -f)
npurge -h 3 \user\steve
Will purge all files that we're deleted 3 or more hours ago in the
directory \user\steve, subdirectories are not processed (absence of -s).
