To list old 5 files
Hi,

I have the files as listed below in one directory. From this I want to list out only the 5 files whch are too old.
Code:
#cd /tmp/
#ls -ltr *
-rwxrwxrwx   1 root    root   24243455 Aug 18 21:02 ten
-rwxrwxrwx   1 root    root   3549121 Aug 18 21:00 nine
-rwxrwxrwx   1 root    root   24158848 Aug 18 20:47 eight
-rwxrwxrwx   1 root    root   29398639 Aug 18 20:45 seven
-rwxrwxrwx   1 root    root   26705993 Aug 18 20:32 six
-rwxrwxrwx   1 root    root   4343874 Aug 18 20:30 five
-rwxrwxrwx   1 root    root   21643630 Aug 18 20:17 four
-rwxrwxrwx   1 root    root   28277108 Aug 18 20:15 three
-rwxrwxrwx   1 root    root   26919801 Aug 18 20:02 two
-rwxrwxrwx   1 root    root   5055793 Aug 18 20:00 one

i.e. My output should list only below file. Can anyone pls help Which command i can use. (Rather than #ls -lt one two three four five).
i.e., It should display 5 old files which are too old.

Code:
-rwxrwxrwx   1 root    root   4343874 Aug 18 20:30 five
-rwxrwxrwx   1 root    root   21643630 Aug 18 20:17 four
-rwxrwxrwx   1 root    root   28277108 Aug 18 20:15 three
-rwxrwxrwx   1 root    root   26919801 Aug 18 20:02 two
-rwxrwxrwx   1 root    root   5055793 Aug 18 20:00 one

rpm2cpio

rpm2cpio(1)                                                        User Commands                                                       rpm2cpio(1)

NAME

       rpm2cpio - convert Red Hat Package (RPM) to cpio archive

SYNOPSIS

       rpm2cpio [file.rpm]

DESCRIPTION

       The  rpm2cpio  utility converts the .rpm file specified as its sole argument to a cpio archive on standard output. (See NOTES.) If no argu-
       ment is given, an rpm stream is read from standard input. In both cases, rpm2cpio will fail and print a usage message if the standard  out-
       put is a terminal. Therefore, the output is usually redirected to a file or piped through the cpio(1) utility.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1: Converting an rpm file

       example% rpm2cpio Device3Dfx-1.1-2.src.rpm | cpio -itv
       CPIO archive found!
       -rw-r--r--   1 root  root    2635 Sep 13 16:39 1998, 3dfx.gif
       -rw-r--r--   1 root  root   11339 Sep 27 16:03 1998, Dev3Dfx.tar.gz
       -rw-r--r--   1 root  root    1387 Sep 27 16:04 1998, Device3Dfx-1.1-2.spec
       31 blocks

       Example 2: Converting from standard input

       example% rpm2cpio < Device3Dfx-1.1-2.src.rpm | cpio -itv
       CPIO archive found!
       -rw-r--r--   1 root  root    2635 Sep 13 16:39 1998, 3dfx.gif
       -rw-r--r--   1 root  root   11339 Sep 27 16:03 1998, Dev3Dfx.tar.gz
       -rw-r--r--   1 root  root    1387 Sep 27 16:04 1998, Device3Dfx-1.1-2.spec
       31 blocks
