Hi,
I was trying to update my Homepage when i noticed that it is not
possible (for me) to put only those files in an tar archive which were
changed.

I tried the following:

t-rex://usr/local/httpd/htdocs/ #find . -mtime 1 -print

and the output were the files which are changed today.

trying 
tar -cvzf webneu.tgz -T /tmp/webneu.files (after creating the file
/tmp/webneu.files) or
tar cf ~/webneu.tar `find . -mtime 1 -print`
has the same result. The whole directory is added to the archive. 

Whats wrong with those commands?

System Information:
uname -a:

Thanks for your help.
