As I said previously, the find command is using the inode date/time, that is what is shown by
Code:
ls -l <timestamp file>
If that date/time is wrong then that explains why find is giving you the wrong output.
You need to test your timestamp creation script by running it and immediately looking at it with ls -l
The date/time shown needs to be four hours ago. If it is not, then your script is faulty. I can't see anything wrong with your script but others on this forum are expert coders and will tell you what's wrong, I'm sure of that.
Thanks!

sttime
sttime(3) ShapeTools Toolkit Library sttime(3)NAME
stMktime, stWriteTime - date and time handling
SYNOPSIS
#include <config.h>
#include <sttk.h.h>
time_tstMktime (char *string);
char*stWriteTime (time_t date);
DESCRIPTION
stMktime scans the given string and tries to read a date and time from it. It understands various formats of date strings. The following is
a list of all valid formats, optional parts in brackets.
[Tue] Jan 5[,] [19]93
This includes the standard asctime(3) format.
Jan 5 With no year given, the year defaults to the current year.
[19]93/01/05 This notation requires month and day represented by exactly two digits.
5.1.[19]93 This is the usual German notation.
5.1. German notation referencing the current year.
A certain time, given together with the date must always have the following form.
hours:minutes[:seconds]
Each of the fields must be an integer value within the proper range (hours: 0-23, minutes and seconds: 0-59). Values below
10 may be written as one digit numbers.
The time value may be placed anywhere in the date string: at the beginning, at the end, or somewhere in the middle. Any amount of white-
space may be given between a field of the time value and the separating colon. The time is always considered to be local time.
stWriteTime generates a time string similar to asctime(3) from its date argument.
SEE ALSO asctime(3)BUGS
Time Zone Names within the time string (like `MET') are not handled properly. In most cases they will cause a failure.
