find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;

find . -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;

find . ! -name "*.php" -exec rm -f {} \;

This will delete all files in the current directory that have a size of zero.

find . -type f -size 0k -exec rm {} \; | awk '{ print $8 }'

Delete files older than X days:

find . -type f -mtime +X -exec rm {} \;

If you want to search a specific directory:

find /path/to/files -type f -mtime +X -exec rm {} \;

You can also delete directories by switching the flag type:

find . -type d -mtime +X -exec rm {} \;

SELECT email, count(email) AS total FROM `tbl_mailing_list` GROUP BY email HAVING total > 1 ORDER BY total;

find . -printf '%i\n' | sort -u | wc -l

for i in `find -type d -maxdepth 1`; do echo -n $i; echo -n " "; find $i | wc -l ; done

UPDATE `tbl_name` SET tbl_field = replace(tbl_field, 'FIND', 'REPLACE');

find . -name *.DS_Store -type f -exec rm {} \;

find . -type d -name .svn -print0 | xargs -0 rm -rf

You can also run the following command:

find . -type d -name .svn -exec 'rm -rf {}\;'

This command will recursively search for a file and remove it.

For example, if you wanted to delete all index.html files, you would do this:

find ./ -name 'index.html' -exec rm '{}' ';' -print

If you wanted to remove all files ending in .html, you would do this:

find ./ -name '*.html' -exec rm '{}' ';' -print

find . -type f -print | xargs sed -i -e 's/FIND/REPLACE/g'

If your index.html and index.php files have suffered from an iframe injection, you can use the following grep/sed command for clearing it out.

Please be careful and test first with just the grep command to ensure you don't clear out anything you don't need.

This command does not backup files!

grep -lr -e '<iframe src="http://.*</iframe>' * | xargs sed -i 's/<iframe src="http:\/\/.*<\/iframe>//g'

find . -type f -exec grep -l 'KEYWORDS' {} /dev/null \;

find . -name "*.php" -exec grep string {} \; -exec echo -e {} \;
