if you dont know where the file is at all, you can do
You would do sudo to make sure all directories are traversed. You have to be an admin to be part of the sudoers group, for sudo to work, otherwise you would have to have an admin log in and edit the /etc/sudoers file to add you or add you to the admin group. If you know the file is somewhere under /Library, then use that instead of just "/". Find is a pretty slow command in my opinion, and you want to narrow the search down if you can. If you want to know your current path you could do pwd (print working directory).

using OS X and the Terminal, I'd like to find all locked files in a specified directory, unlock them, and print a list of those files that were unlocked
how can I do this?
I'm familiar with chflags nouchg for unlocking one file but not familiar with unix enough to do what I'd like.
