hi All,
I just came to know abt.  the command "locate" which is similar to "find"
command but it is much faster, I was reading abt.it & came to know that it
searches thorogh a database made by cron deamon.Now can anyone tell me how
this database is made & maintained and does this database has got all the
data of my hard disk??
Another thing where is this databse located??
