Find cmd not working as expected
Hi,
i wan to search the file starting with Admin into the directory Output. I am running below command: find /appl/Output -name "Admin*" -prune but this command is going into the sub directories present under output. I do not want to search under sub directories. Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks!! |

try -maxdepth as follows..
Code:
-maxdepth levels
Descend at most levels (a non-negative integer) levels of direc-
tories below the command line arguments. `-maxdepth 0' means
only apply the tests and actions to the command line arguments.

you could use the option mtime in the find command to search based on the modified time of the file.
