Debian List last 1 hour files with out FIND command

Hi Friends,

Can we have an alternate command to list last 1hour files with out FIND command?

Thanks
Suresh

Sure!
There are a lot of ways to do almost anything.
Why would we want to reinvent the wheel?

time now== 18:31
1 hour ago == 17:31
date 2014 05 19

Code:
touch -t 201405191731 dummy
find /path/to/files ! -newer dummy

But why do you need to do this -- your find does not support minutes?

The OP said he wants to do this without using find. It looks to me like you're using find. And, unless he can give us a reasonable reason not to use find, I don't see any reason to play this game.

Seems like homework to me.

I created a user in AIX with limited permissions. WUsing the new user I am unable to use find command to search files in /root directories.

If you have permission problems reading directories using find, avoiding find won't give you any more access to those directories.
