Classify data using mahout

I'm new to Apache Mahout and working on a classsification problem.

The Problem states: There exists a set of data in a text file and I need to fetch some or all of the data from the file depending upon the given span of time.

Span of time : Each record would have a Date of transaction.
So, time span would be calculated using the logic (Sys_Date - Transaction_Date).

Thus, output would vary depending upon whether data is required for last month / week / specific number of days.
How can this filtering be achieved using Apache Mahout.

I haven't been working properly with hadoop yet. But it seems to me that this video should help: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KwW7bQRykHI&feature=player_embedded

After the filtering, you can use result in mahout (for solving the classification problem)

This by itself does not sound like a machine learning problem at all. You want to put your data in a database of some kind and query for records in a date range. Then, you want to do something with that data. This is not something ML tools do.
