Hi!

I run Solaris 9 and want to delete some directories older than 2
hours. Like this:

find /MYDIR/ -name "MYPATTERN" -type d -mmin +120 -exec rm -R {} \;

But there ist no option like "mmin" in Solaris 9, I can only select
files older than whole days by "-mtime", but not by hours.

Even if you don't have access to a 'find' that accepts minutes, you can
use 'touch' to create a file of the correct age. Then use find -newer
(or ! -newer) to select files newer or older than that point in time.
