hi there, i've been trying to delete all the works directories in my ports dir. this is the command i'm trying to use: sudo /usr/bin/find /usr/ports -name work -depth 3 -type d -delete after i issue the command however sudo /usr/bin/find /usr/ports -name work -depth 3 -type d tells me that nothing got deleted at all. is there something wrong with that command? cheers. alex
