Explain how you would use crontab to schedule a script that finds and removes your old temporary files in /tmp at the start of each day.
What will be an ideal response?
The script uses find with the –mtime argument to find all files older than one day and the –exec
argument to remove them. When setting up the crontab file, use “*” for all specifications except
hours and minutes so that it runs every day at the specified time.
