Hi, The first statement says that the following will not work (or at least not the way it would normally work): /path/to/a*/b*/*.log Whereas recursion means that you can only do this: /path/to/*.log This will match everything that the first one does and _more_ as recursion enables it to enter _any_ subdirectory below to match *.log. You can only use a wildcard in the file name, not in the directory name.
