Especially if you are looking for hacked files via the server console or just need an overview of your backups, there is a very good little parameter at find.
find . -type f -daystart -ctime -1
This is a very nice way to find files created today. Now this command is different from the following command.
find . -type f -ctime -1
The -daystart
flag tells find to use the start of day (according to system time) when looking for files created today. Without daystart
, the flag ctime -1
instructs find to find files that were created in the last 24 hours.
