Finding Files
Apr 2020
Overview
One thing I have always struggled with is finding things in CentOS. So here I am going to put a few examples, and over time hopefully add some more.
Examples
To find a file, use: find / -file “install.sh”
In the above example, the “/” is root, so find will look in root and all of its subfolders for a file called “install.sh”.
You can specify a location to search with find /home “filename.ext”
