If you leave your system powered on 24/7, it will periodically create a database of all (world-traversable) directories/files on your system (via cron). You can then easily search this database using locate(1), e.g.: locate 'site/eg'. You can manually create/update this database with /usr/libexec/locate.updatedb (it may take a while). GH -- :wq
