Hello All, I want to do a simple find command to find all files older than X days. # find . -type f -mtime +14 -print Normally, I would expect the command above to find files modified more than 14 days ago. The syntax is straight out of "UNIX in a Nutshell" by O'Reilly & Associates. However, it does not work in FreeBSD. I did look at the manpage for find on our FreeBSD 4.1. The -mtime +n syntax is not documented. How could such an essential feature not be implemented in FreeBSD?
