Hi,

I am aware of the command locate/slocate. But when I try to search the file which is located in /tmp. Its not able to get it. I tried by updating the database also with the command updatedb.

Is there any consern that the command 'locate' dont check /tmp???

And I knew that locate is the short name for slocate.But in my box (RHEL5) slocate command is not working.

Please clear my doubts.
Thanks in advance.
