    I'd want to create a tarball of list of N files provided in a BACKUP-FILE_list and those files should be modified in last 24 hours.

    Trying to work w/ both of the following w/ AND statement:

    tar cvf BACKUP-FILE.tar `find . -mtime n`

    AND

    tar -cvf BACKUP-FILE.tar -L BACKUP-FILE_list
    Thoughts??
