When soemone says index all files on system, I firstly think about system service that is doing its searching in the background and make sure searching is taking less time when it is needed. Like beagle and tracker on gnu/Linux. As I see, Tracker is there inside OI_148 publisher. ___ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss

I never have got onto using it, and always went with some incantation of find. Seems like several times I tried it and the db was not up to date and so first had to update that... even with some cron run update scheme, etc etc... so never really bothered with it. But for what I want right now... it would be just the ticket, I think. It does not appear to be available as a pkg on oi 147 with publisher set like this: PUBLISHER TYPE STATUS URI openindiana.org (pref) origin online http://pkg.openindiana.org/dev/ opensolaris.orgorigin online http://pkg.openindiana.org/legacy/ Did you mean to compile it from source? ___ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss

If not, then is there some better way than running 'find' on all the drives and compiling a list from it. Some kind of sorted plain text list would be good, I think Something that could be easily grepped with common grep commands, so not a data base type file. ___ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss ___ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
