cksum all executables on drive
I know I can run the cksum command for multiple files in a directory and send the results to a new file.
EX.)
# cd /usr
# cksum *_ex* > /tmp/cksumusr.txt
But I can't figure out how to run this command on multiple files in all directories on drive. Is it possible to do this, without having to manually type these commands for every directory on my drive, and how would I go about it.
If you could help me I would appreciate it.
Thanx

hello all.

For instance:
Say you had a directory named "dir_A"
And within this directory you had some files.
So:
dir_A
- file1
