Hi,
my weekly 310.locate script using defaults in /etc/locate.rc
produces a database which contains only a few file systems output
I'm not yet sure when this stopped working but I wonder if anyone else
is seeing this ?
Now after reading man locate I know that if directories are not
readable by user `nobody' find will skip them but the 'ls / ' below
shows world readability, and I'm actually not sure that makes perfect
sense let paranoia tell it. But this system is not permanently connected.
