No it is not working.

I copied the code in the backup.sh = file and put into /etc/cron.hourly
-------------------------------------= ------
#!/bin/sh

target=3D$HOME/org/backupOrg
mkdir -p "$= target" && \
=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0 find "$HOME" -type f -name '*.org' = ! -path "$target/*" \
=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0 -exec cp -t "= $target" {} +

echo "Daily Org Files Backup Successful: $(d= ate)" >> /home/USERNAME/mybackupOrg.log
-------------------------------------------
And then changed the crontab= hourly setting to 26.

/etc/crontab
# m h dom mon dow user=A0=A0= =A0 command
26 *=A0=A0=A0 * * *=A0=A0=A0 root=A0=A0=A0 cd / && r= un-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly
-------------------------------------------

Even after 26th minute, = there is no sign of the code in work. Is it that $HOME is not allowed and I= need to give full path ?

Thanks

How about this:


#!/bin/sh

target=3D$HOME/org/backup
mkdir -p "$target" && \
=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 find "$HOME" -type f -name '*.org' ! -pat= h "$target/*" \
=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 -exec cp -t "$target" {} +
