Thanks to MacDonell
This works fine and is a good solution
Sorry I missed the bit about the alarm, you could include that with
#!/bin/sh
FILE=<file path>
SIZE=0
while [ 0 ]
do
SIZE=`ls -l $FILE | awk '{print $5}'`
DATE=`ls -l $FILE | awk '{print $6, $7, $8}'`
if [ $SIZE -eq 0 ]
then
OSIZE=$SIZE
else
if [ $OSIZE -ne $SIZE ]
then
mailx -s "Alarm: change in file size" user@domain < "The size of
<file> changed to $SIZE bytes at $DATE"
exit 1
fi
fi
sleep 300
done
exit 0

Subject: script to check file size and date stamp
Hi gurus
I need a script to check the date stamp and the size of a file continoulsy
every 5 minutes and give an alarm
if anything changes in that file.
