Hi:

Google this site and you would find any number of examples. In short:

# find /path -xdev -type f -mtime -30 -exec ls -ld {} +

...to find files in '/path' modified during the last 30-days.

Change '-30' to '+30' if you want files not modified in the last 30-days.

You can also touch two temporary files and use their timestamps as boundaries, like:

# touch -amt 201101010000 /tmp/f1
# touch -amt 201104010000 /tmp/f2

# find /patch -xdev -type f \( -newer /tmp/f1 -a ! -newer /tmp/f2 \) -exec ls -ld {} +

...to find files modified between the two periods.

Regards!
