in reply to Removing files with extentions of log and date-time.

Just wondering... wouldn't be easier using del *.log/s than writing a perl script for doing this?

just my $0.02

    It would be easier to write del *.log/s, however I have to maintain a server that downloads about 500Mb to 1Gb a day from the web. Then it does log rotations every 12 hours. So, I figure that I would try out Perl in my sys. admin. environment. But, thanks for your $0.02, I have already gone down that route. Thanks!!!!
