    FILE SEARCH QUERY

    This window contains the following fields.

    Find Filenames like

    Use this field to specify file names to use in the search pattern.
    The file names can contain the standard UNIX wild card matching
    characters `*', `?' and `[ ]'. This field will accept more than one
    entry. Leave a blank space between each unique filename for multiple
    entries.

    Skip Filenames like

    This is the opposite of Find Filenames like. The filenames entered
    here create an exclusion list. Any filename entered here will NOT be
    matched by the search. This field uses the same format as the
    previous field.

    File Size between ... and

    Every file residing on the system requires space. This space is
    referred to as the file size. Any input for these fields specifies
    the minimum and/or maximum file size a file can have as part of the
    search routine. If a file is smaller than the amount entered in the
    first field, the search routine will exclude it. Conversely, if the
    file is larger than the amount entered in the second field, the
    search routine will also exclude it. You can also use these two
    fields together to specify a range of file sizes in your search.

    To change the default size, enter the data in the format N unit,
    where N is the numeric size to search for and unit is one of the
    following units of measure:

    + KB = Kilobytes
    + MB = Megabytes
    + GB = Gigabytes

    You can either add the unit directly in the field or just add the
    numeric size and click on the Bytes button to select the unit.

    # of Links between ... and

    Files on a UNIX system can have more than one name (every file is
    considered to have one link to its original name). If they do have
    more than one name they are referred to as linked files. In many
    cases a file may have more than one link.

    Any input for these fields specifies the minimum and/or maximum
    links a file can have as part of the search routine. If a the number
    of links for a file is smaller than the amount entered in the first
    field, the search routine will exclude it. Conversely, if the number
    of links is greater than the amount entered in the second field, the
    search routine will also exclude it. You can also use these two
    fields together to narrow the search to a specific link count range.

    Older than

    When a file is created, its creation date is stored by the file
    system in what is called an inode. Every time the file is modified
    the date of the modification is updated in the inode. Specifying an
    entry in this field will limit the search to any files created after
    the date entered. You can use one of two formats for the date. See
    "TIME FORMATS" on page C-1 for more details.

    Newer

    Specifying a date in this field (which has the same format as the
    previous field) will limit the search to any files created before
    the date entered. You can also use the Older than and Newer fields
    together to specify a range of creation times in your search.

    Owner Names

    Every file on the system has an owner. In most cases the owner is
    the user who created the file. Use this field to find only those
    files whose owners match the names of the users entered. Click on
    the arrow button and a pop-up menu will appear listing all Owner
    names. Highlight the Owner names you wish to search on, then click
    on the Apply button.

    This field will accept more than one entry. Leave a blank space
    between each unique owner for multiple entries.To exclude any files
    owned by certain users, place a `!' before those usernames.

    Group Names

    Every file on the system belongs to a user group. Use this field to
    find only those files whose group ownership matches the user group
    names entered in this field. Click on the arrow button and a pop-up
    menu will appear listing all Group Names. Highlight the Group Names
    you wish to search for, then click on the Apply button.

    This field will accept more than one entry. Leave a blank space
    between groups for multiple entries.To exclude any files owned by
    certain groups, place a `!' before those group names.

    File Types

    Use this field to select specific file types for the search. To do
    so, click in the box preceding the file description. You may select
    more than one file type. The default is all file types are used:

    Regular file Directory Symbolic Link

    FIFO (pipe) Block Special Char Special

    Set Userid Bit Set Groupid Bit Sticky bit

    Socket

    Buttons

    This window contains the following buttons.

    Execute Search

    The search criteria may use one or any combination of the above
    fields. Once you've entered your search criteria, click on the
    Execute Search button. The File Systems Detail window will appear
    with a list of the files which met the criteria. You may then
    execute more commands such as edit, delete, and chown to manipulate
    the displayed files' characteristics. See "View Files" on page 5-9
    for more details on how to use the File Systems Detail window.
