Thanks for the reply.
I am very glad to understand where the urfs came from. This certainly
explains why no one on the Sun Managers list recognized it.
Now, if I understand this correctly then the only reason that the
"cookbook" answer from support works is because of the -o flag? Or am I
still misunderstanding things here?
What I want to accomplish is, search all locally mounted file-systems, of
any type, and descend into all locally mounted file-systems, without
getting all the noise generated by the bad symlinks? in the /rem mess.
It would also be nice to not search any remote file-systems at all.
However I think that find has to at least look at them, since _in
theory_ I could have a local file-system mounted off of a remote
mounted file-system. Not that I would ever do such a strange thing.
Thanks, again.
