reverse find operation

[vijay...@gmail.com]

Hi,

I am having lot of test directories under which the log files reside.
Some times the log files are not created because of the setup issues
but the directory would be created.
I would like to find out the directory/testname which does not have
the log files.
Do we have a specific command in Linux ?

I know this can be done by using a script, but interested in the one
line command.

I have tried to do lot of iterations but didn't get the actual things.

Can we call find within the find operation like, find . -type d -name
"dirName" -exec find {}\; ! \( -name "logfileName" \)



Thanks,
Vijay Gampa
