Hi,
technically, your command should work as expected!
The -name parameter as you used it is redundant and can be omitted.
Perhaps you should try other parameters like -atime or -ctime, and look what they bring about.
There is also an -newer parameter:
You could touch a file and use it as a reference -
touch -t 200811010000.00 /tmp/reference.file
and then do
find . -newer /tmp/reference.file > stuff.txt
(or use find . -newer /tmp/reference.file -ls to check beforehand)
This way you can build an exact starting point for your find.
Remember, if you want to process files only, not directories, use -type f , and if you don't want to process subdirectories, use -maxdepth 1 (if your find supports it).
Good luck!
