Hello Brian,

Check out /etc/security. In there, there is a code snippet thar runs the
find command:

MP=`mount -t ufs | grep -v " nosuid" | sed 's;/dev/;&r;' | awk '{ print
$3 }'`
set $MP
while test $# -ge 1; do
	mount=$1
	shift
	find $mount -xdev -type f \
		\( -perm -u+x -or -perm -g+x -or -perm -o+x \) \
		\( -perm -u+s -or -perm -g+s \)  -print0
done | xargs -0 -n 20 ls -lTd | sort +9 > $TMP


I suggest adding | grep -v "mount point of news..." to the first line if
you have news on it's own partition, which I suppose you do, considering
the size... :)
I guess there are a bunch of ways to do it.

Regards,
Palle
