Balaji,

This will list all the directories, but i need only the matching directories.

I tried to update the command like this:

ls -l [0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9] | grep "^d" | awk '{print $NF}'

but I am getting Arg list too long. Do you know any alternate for maxdepth option in FIND command that is supported on AIX
