My problem is with the find command. After looking through the forum I've got -
find . -mtime 2 -name "*"
which gives me a list of all the files modified in the last 2 days.
How do I change this to list files modified in the last 2 hours?
Sorry if this question is already on the forum... (4 Replies)
Last week I was using the command:
' find /directory -mtime -2 -print' and it showed all the files modified within that period. However, now it only displays the directories and not the files modified. The only thing that changed is that I was granted access to some files.

I need to be able to search for a certain keyword only within files that are modified between certain date and time, say for e.g 2012-08-20 12:30 to 2012-08-20 12:40
Can someone let me know what would be the fastest way... (10 Replies)
