Well, if you had System V, release 3, you could use the -mount option to stop find from crossing file-system mount points in its search. But -mount isn't even in the SVID. Maybe Sun'll implement it in System V release 4... It's certainly not recognised by the Sun 3 we have here. Ain't compatibility great? -- Dominic Dunlop domo@sphinx.co.uk domo@riddle.uucp
