I think you have the tail wagging the dog. The find command is what
needs to be modified to keep it from descending into AFS space; not AFS.
Anyway, the best solution (IMHO) is something very close to what Joseph
and others offered:
find / \! -fstype 4.2 -prune -o -name core -atime +7 -exec rm -f {} \;
This has the advantage that its behavior on non-AFS systems should be
identical to the behavior of the crontab entry shipped with SunOS.
