Re: help: newer option in find

Hi (again) Rinky:

> Iam storing that tim variable in a file and using that in my query

This isn't going to work the way you are doing it. Re-read my last post. You need to create a dummy "reference" file (with 'touch') to supply as the argument to '-newer' in your 'find'. When you do an 'ls -l' of the reference file, its timestamp (not its name!) should represent the time and date of interest.

Regards!
