NAME

       slocate - Security Enhanced version of the GNU Locate

SYNOPSIS

       slocate [-qi] [-d <path>] [--database=<path>] <search string>
       slocate [-i] [-r <regexp>] [--regexp=<regexp>]
       slocate [-qv] [-o <file>] [--output=<file>] slocate [-e <dir1,dir2,...>] [-f <fstype1,...>] <[-l <level>] [-c] <[-U <path>] [-u]>
       slocate [-Vh] [--version] [--help]

DESCRIPTION

       Secure  Locate  provides a secure way to index and quickly search for all files on your system regardless of ownership. It uses incremental
       encoding just like GNU locate to compress its database to make searching faster, but it will also  check  file  permissions  and  ownership
       before  displaying matched entries so that users will not see files they do not have access to. Note that permissions and ownership are not
       stored in the database.

       This manual page documents slocate.  slocate Enables system users to search entire filesystems without displaying unauthorized files.

   OPTIONS
       -u     Create slocate database starting at path /.

       -U <dir>
	      Create slocate database starting at path <dir>.

       -e <dir1,dir2,...>
	      Exclude directories from the slocate database.

       -f <fstype1,...>
	      Exclude files on specific file systems from the slocate database.

       -c     Parse '/etc/updatedb.conf' when updating the slocate database. (see CONFIGURATION FILE below).

       -l <level>
	      Security level.  0 turns security checks off. This will make searchs faster.  1 turns security checks on. This is the default.

       -i     Does a case insensitive search.

       -q     Quiet mode.  Error messages are suppressed.

       -n <num>
	      Limit the amount of results shown to <num>.

       -r <regexp>
	      --regexp=<regexp> Search the database using a basic POSIX regular expression.

       -o <file>
	      --output=<file> Specfies the database to create.

       -d <path>
	      --database=<path> Specfies the path of databases to search in.

       -h     --help Display this help.

       -v     --verbose Verbose mode. Display files when creating database.

       -V     --version Display version.

ENVIRONMENT
