If I am looking for files in a specific folder which were CREATED more than 24 hours ago, should I be using find . -type f -ctime +1 -print or find . -type f -mtime +1 -print AFAICT, 'atime' is reset by using 'find' itself, which I don't want. For as long as I've used Un*x, you'd think I'd know this one, but I'm not sure. -ctime n True if the difference between the time of last change of file status information and the time find was started, rounded up to the next full 24-hour period, is n 24-hour periods. -mtime n True if the difference between the file last modification time and the time find was started, rounded up to the next full 24-hour period, is n 24-hour periods. If I had to guess I'd guess 'ctime' but I thought I'd ask you fine folks. Thanks! TjL
