You can't search in the directory without executable rights: $ mkdir aaa $ touch aaa/bb $ find aaa/ -name "bb" aaa/bb $ chmod a-x aaa/ $ find aaa/ -name "bb" $ You cannot delete the directory if it's not empty: $ rm -rf aaa/ rm: aaa/: Directory not empty $ -- Alexander Pohoyda <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
