jiliagre you cannot draw conclusions about all versions of unix based solely on your own experience. As stated in earlier posts I have seen this problem before which is why I gave the reply which fixed the problem. The quoting of "{}" in unix "find" is well documented though I didn't know that until I looked.

file2dgr

FILE2DGR(1)							  DGR executables						       FILE2DGR(1)

NAME

       file2dgr - DGR transmission test program

SYNOPSIS

       file2dgr remoteHostName fileName [nbrOfCycles]

DESCRIPTION

       file2dgr uses DGR to send nbrOfCycles copies of the text of the file named fileName to the dgr2file process running on the computer
       identified by remoteHostName.  If not specified (or if less than 1), nbrOfCycles defaults to 1.	After sending all lines of the file,
       file2dgr sends a datagram containing an EOF string (the ASCII text "*** End of the file ***") before reopening the file and starting
       transmission of the next copy.

       When all copies of the file have been sent, file2dgr prints a performance report:

	       Bytes sent = I<byteCount>, usec elapsed = I<elapsedTime>.

	       Sending I<dataRate> bits per second.

EXIT STATUS

       0   file2dgr has terminated.

FILES

       No configuration files are needed.

ENVIRONMENT

       No environment variables apply.

DIAGNOSTICS

       Diagnostic messages produced by file2dgr are written to the ION log file ion.log.
