Hi fellas
How can I exclude specific directories from my find command ? I want to look
for all files in the whole system except for those in e.g /extra directory.
I use this command to find all files, but how can I exclude /extra directory ?
find / -type f
Thanks in advance

It certainly does. Thank you. I was off on enough wrong syntax

figure it out. I found ton

Can one use the -prune directive multiple times in a
find command to specify a list of directories not to descend?
It would be like
find . -name "*" -prune dir1 -prune dir2 -print
or whatever you wanted find to do, but that does not work or I
wouldn't be asking.
It has to wait for completion to see the exit status.
Thanks. I misunderstood what I read.

When using the find command with the -exec option, does the find
command wait for the command being executed to finish before returning
the next result?
For example, if I am using find -exec {} to copy files to tape, will
find wait for the command to write the file to tape complete before

For some reason, the "find" command above is getting a "permission denied."
And, again, the "find" command is being run by the "www" user, who
owns the files and dir.
The exact message is: "find: .: Permission denied&qu

Assuming that "directory" means "directory tree" and that "word" means
"string", this might work:
find . -type f -print
