Hi admins,
How to find the files which are created Just after midnight, the previous day.

For the file which are created after midnight TODAY, I could refer to a file with the -newer option.

find / -name "abc*.txt" -newer /etc/today-file-after-midnight.

The question is for the PREVIOUS days file. Just the previous day!!
the command
find / -name "def*.txt" -mtime +1 - gives me the list of ALL previous old files. But I want only the previous day (yesterday) file.

Please help.
Balaji
