Finding all files that exceed X megabytes.
I'm running putty.exe and I wish to list all files on the server that exceed a certain size, for example 5mb. We exceeded our backup storage and I wish to know what's taking up so much space.

Code:
find /path -size +5242880c -print
or
find /path -size +5242880c -exec ll {} \;
Change the 5242880 number to reflect the size you want

oof
thank you very much
that's exactly what i wanted unfortunately i'm still not sure where the extra 115gb of data came from or where it is, yet. all i know is they were added to the server in the month of sept, last month... maybe we have a hacker? can i modify the command to search for files greater than X, but less than Y? is there a command I can use to check the overall size of every file on the server and the size of a directory?

If someone has installed a root kit, it means those files will not show up with conventional commands - quota, ls, find and some others will not report files that the root kit does not want you to see. Get a fresh copy of cksum and use it to verify
system utilities that report on disks - ls, find etc. Code:
find /path (-size +5242880c -a -size -10000000c) -exec ll {} \;
puts an upper and lower bound on find Quote:
Code:
for regular files
find / -type f -exec ll {} \;
for directories
find / -type d -exec ll {} \;
