find files with specific date and time

itik · #1 (**permalink**) 01-18-2008

Hi,

I wanna to find files with specific date and time. I know this command: ls -ltr /system1/*.505 | grep 'Jan 18 09:00'.

I want the 'Jan 18 09:00' not hard coded, I want it coming from the system date and time. And I want the time varies from 09:00-09:05.

Is this possible without heavy scripting?

Thanks in advance,
Ititk
