Hello,

I am having problems (to say the least) with this command. My frustration
level has been raised to new heights.

Can anybody tell me what is wrong with the syntax bellow.

1. find -name xinitrc

2. find -f /usr/X11R6 -name xinitrc


The first command it does not recognize the -name primary

The second command does not find the file, even though it is there.

Thanks
