Hi all;
last week my 'find' command suddenly went on the fritz;
find / -name <file> -print
used to work fine, searching my whole disk for the file in
question. Now however, it immediately prints out a list of 50-60
lines like the following, yet can't find which I know does exist.
sean# find / -name httpd -print
*returns*
find: /usr/include/isofs: No such file or directory
find: /usr/include/machine: No such file or directory
find: /usr/include/msdosfs: No such file or directory
find: /usr/include/net: No such file or directory
find: /usr/include/netatalk: No such file or directory
...
-OR-
sean# find . -name httpd -print
*returns*
find: ./usr/include/isofs: No such file or directory
find: ./usr/include/machine: No such file or directory
find: ./usr/include/msdosfs: No such file or directory
find: ./usr/include/net: No such file or directory
find: ./usr/include/netatalk: No such file or directory
....
The directories, such as "/usr/include/isofs" do infact exist.
Any ideas as to what's wrong, or what changed; these commands
worked in the past. I even ftp'd a new 'find' command from a
working server, but get the same results.
TIA
Sean
