List files of certain owner

[rpmrob]

Hi:

I'm a regular user on our Novell network. My portion of a shared drive keeps getting used up and I often have to scrounge through and find any files with my name on them and delete un-necessary ones. Is there anyway I can list files that I have my name stamped on them ? I've asked my NW Admin, but they keep telling me they don't have the time to figure it out.

Thanks!

From a DOS prompt, you can use the NDIR command to do this, syntax is something like this:

NDIR *.* /OW EQ "USERNAME" /S

Basically, this will list all files owned by the user USERNAME (the /S searches subdirectories). You can pipe this to a file by using this syntax:

NDIR *.* /OW EQ "USERNAME" /S /C > file.txt

(the /C makes the output run continous).

Marv is right, your admin seems a right lazy arse if he/she cannot even he you do do simple reporting like this? It took me 2 minutes to figure out the NDIR switches....
