can anyone explain the difference between the 2 searches ? many times it appears things act strangely different in different directories for no apparent reason. #1.......................... cd usr/local/man/man1 find / -name ispell* /usr/local/man/man1/ispell.1 ............................ #2.......................... cd usr/local/man find / -name ispell* /dos/bsd/packages/all/ispell-3.1.2 /usr/local/bin/ispell /usr/local/man/man1/ispell.1 /usr/local/man/cat1/ispell.1.gz /usr/local/man/man4/ispell.4 /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/ispell.el /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/ispell.elc /usr/packages/All/ispell-3.1.20.tgz /var/db/pkg/ispell-3.1.20 ............................ i've double-checked all my ownerships and permissions with other PCs - but this was all done as -root- anyway ...
