title: Linux find command questions
body: <p>I do not have a working Linux system to try these commands out with so I am asking on here if what I am planning on doing is the correct thing to do.  (Doing this while I am downloading an ISO via a connection that I think dial-up is faster).  </p>
  
  <p>1, I am trying to find all files with the .log extension in the /var/log directory and sub-directories, writing the standard out to logdata.txt and standard out to logerrors.txt </p>
  
  <p>I believe the command would be:</p>
  
  <p>$ find /var/log/ -name *.log 1>logdata.txt 2>/home/username/logs/logerrors.txt.</p>
  
  <p>2, Find all files with .conf in the /etc directory.  standard out will be a file called etcdata and standard error to etcerrors.</p>
  
  <p>$ find /etc -name *.conf 1>etcdata 2>etcerrors</p>
  
  <p>3, find all files that have been modified in the last 30 minutes in the /var directory.  standard out is to go into vardata and errors into varerrors.</p>
  
  <p>Would that be:</p>
  
  <p>$ find /var -mmin 30 1>vardata 2>varerrors.</p>
  
  <p>Are these correct?  If not what am I doing wrong?</p>
