find /etc -type f -exec grep -l /home {} \;
Since you're searching for something that is possibly referring to a home
directory, be aware that the syntax ~/ refers to "the home directory of the
current user."

Subject: HOWTO : Search
Can I search for an occurrance of a string within files, within a
directory? I'm looking for a reference to "/home" in a config file or
script somewhere.
