This command is showing the file names in the directory as well..
Is it not possible just to list the directory names and the sub directores ..
Yes, it is:
prints only the names of the directories, not the files. If you want to output to be "ls -l"-like (more exactly: like "ls -lisa") replace the "-print" with "-ls".
I suggest you read the man page of "find" to learn what other possibilities of changing the output there are.
Is it possible to have a directory owned (by root) with permissions drwx------
and then have a sub directory of rwxrwxrwx.
I know that this may be soo simple but I had no luck googling it.
Thanks for your help (1 Reply)

The whereis command locates source, binary, and/or reference page files for the specified program program.
OPTIONS
The -b, -m, and -s options can be used in combination to restrict the search. Searches for an executable program. Searches for the refer-
ence page for a program. Searches for the sources of a program.
Use the -B, -M, and -S options to change or limit the places whereis searches. Specifies the binary directories to search. Specifies the

The other options that can be used with whereis are as follows: Terminates the last directory list and signals the start of program names.
Used with other options to indicate when there is no file for program in the default or specified directory or directories (source, binary,

EXAMPLES
To find files matching cat in the default source, binary, and reference directories, enter: whereis cat To search for reference pages for
app13 in the directory /usr/local/man, enter: whereis -M /usr/local/man -f -f appl3 To find the programs in /usr/bin that do not have ref-
erence pages in /usr/share/man/man1 with source files in /usr/src/cmd, enter: whereis -u -M /usr/share/man/man1
-S /usr/src/cmd -f /usr/bin/* To find which files in the current directory either have no reference pages in the default reference
