The original post was about locate world-writeable file and setuid
files...etc.
I want to limited the find to local filesystems only. I don't want
multiple NFS clients run the find on the same NFS export. I got some
permission errors and "Stale NFS file handle" errors with "-local".
There were many many replies. Sorry, I can't list everyone replied. The
suggestions are:
1. It is your fault, RTFM again.
Manpage said -local *WILL* descend the hierarchy of non-local
directories.
2. Check out "-prune"
Always yields true. Does not examine any directories or files in
the directory structure below the pattern just matched.
3. use -xdev
Same as -mount primary
4. try -mount
5. Manpage! There's an example in the manpage
Example 9: Printing local files without descending non-local
directories
%find . ! -local -prune -o -print

1. The main point is "-local" still descend NFS mounted directories.
That's why I got some errors.
2. To get the job done--->
Since I want find to drill down from / on many systems with probably
different filesystem setup. I can't use "-mount" for each filesystem.
Darren Dunham pointed out that
find / \( -fstype ufs -o -fstype vxfs \) -type f -perm -6000 -print

Dan Stromberg suggested
> find . -fstype nfs -prune -o -print
Nope, I don't have an exact answer yet. I was out yesterday. I played
with this a bit this morning. The followings seems to good so far
find / -fstype nfs -prune -o -perm -2 -print
find / \! -local -prune -o -perm -2 -print
Thanks a lot ... and I'll remember to boot up my brain before reading the
man page.

find and NO nfs
Hi all,
I want to look for some files and dont' need to look at things other than
ufs and vxfs. I absolutely dont' need to look at NFS also.
I did this
find / -local -type f -perm -6000 -print
and
- it take much longer than it should
- I got a few error message on can't read some user home dir
mounted by autofs
- and got this "find: cannot open /: Stale NFS file handle" (I was
root)
Tried this and seems to have the same problem.
find / \( -fstype ufs -o -fstype vxfs \) -type f -perm -6000
-print
Is it me using the wrong find syntax or is this system build version?
thanks in advance and I'll summarize even it is a dumb mistake =)
William
