Searching for folders which are over 5 hours old.

Shell Programming and Scripting
1

I want to create a script which will delete all folders which are over 5 hours old in HP-UX 11.11.
I tried to use the "find" command but it didn't have an option for searching files/folder by hours.
Could some one tell me how to achieve this in HP-UX with only using the standard OS commands and not installing any applications?

You can use man find on HP-UX.

Thanks for response danmero but there was no option in HP-UX for the "find" command to find folders by hours. It can only find by days.

You do have -mtime for days, check if you have -mmin for minutes.

-mmin option is not available in HP-UX.
Is it possible to do this using some perl command?
