I need to search a very large number of directories (thousands) and
sub-directions for
filename or directories which match a search string. I tried the
"find" command but it doesn't seem to be recursing. Shell is bash and
OS is Linux so anything in BASH/SH/Perl or even C would be cool. Would
like errors flushed to /dev/null and any search hits to go in logfile
in format like: "Found instance of "FOO" in /usr/bar"
Thanks!
