Wanted: powerful extended DIR or FIND utility.



Hi
>From windows server 2003 command line, I want to be able to search a
huge directory tree for *.ext, only returning files which were
modified or created since a certain date. I want the output to be 1
line per file, show the full path\filename, as well as the date & time
in a standard format.
Also, I dont want it to break if it comes across files/folder which it
cannot access.

The windows DIR command cannot list the path as well as the date and
time stamp, and it cannot only return recently modified files.
FIND from GNU utilities for Win32, is excellent, except I get "System
Volume Information: Bad file descriptor" on folders it cannot access.
LS from GNU utilities for Win32, cannot only return recently modified
files.
Perl also seems to fail when it hits a folder which it doesnt have the
permissions to read.

Obviously it needs to run very efficiently, and would preferable to
have loads more powerful options.
Any suggestions?
Also, if anyone knows any tips for getting the maximum speed out of
it, I'll be greatful.
Thanks
Nick
