I tried this and it worked (but I'm no shell expert, either, so buyer
beware). Also, I used 180 days here for your six month cutoff (-mtime -180)
with the find command in the script.
--begin script
#!/bin/bashmovedir=/path/to/target_folder/cd /path/to/source_folder/find .
-depth -type f -name '*' \! -mtime -180 -exec mv {} $movedir \;
--end script
I'm sure someone on the list will come up with better code, though. HTH
