1) To ignore a load of "Permission denied" errors, I'd do:-
$find / -name "<YourFileName>" 2>/dev/null

Other useful things.
2) So I don't have to do a case sensitive search, I use -iname more
frequently than -name.
3) Within a -name -or -iname clause, I frequently use wildcards in the
given name pattern.

HTH,


Ian
