Hi.

I've notice this posting from Daryl on the Internet, and thought I would
shed some light, in case this hasn't yet been identified.

Indeed there is a bug fix for the above mentionned problem ... for Tru64
v5.1B Pach Kit 03

November 4, 2003: Regression in find Command
The find command delivered in Patch 1197.00 contains a regression that
affects the traversing of very large directory structures. The following is
an example of the error message generated if you should experience the
problem:
$ find . -name abc
find: Cannot open file ./path/filename/
: Too many open files
 
find: cannot open < ./aa5142>
find: cannot open < ./aa5143>
find: cannot open < ./aa5144>
find: cannot open < ./aa5144>
To correct this problem, you must install the following Early Release Patch
(ERP) kit:
    T64KIT0020545-V51BB24-E-20031104.tar
You can find this ERP kit on the following Web site:
<http://www.itrc.hp.com/service/patch/mainPage.do >
Note: You will be required to create a login account if you have not already
done so. If you use the site's search facility, do not specify the .tar file
extension.
This problem will be fixed in the next Version 5.1B patch kit.

Cheers.
