Full Discussion: "find" on different OS's
Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users "find" on different OS's Post 302480366 by citaylor on Tuesday 14th of December 2010 04:34:19 PM
Old 12-14-2010
/proc is a special filesystem that is very transitionary as it mirrors the state of the O/S, and has no "real" files, so I would recommend not running the find against it...You can remove it from the list by using something like:
Code:
find / -name proc -prune -o -group 1234 -print

The speed of the find is linked to the speed of the filesystem, the speed of the hardware it is running on, the tuning of the O/S (filesystem and inode cache sizes, etc), and the other work the server is doing.
I would recommend installing the GNU "findutils" and use "locate" if you are doing this on a regular basis.

ksc

KSC(1)								   User Commands							    KSC(1)

NAME

       ksc - Linux kernel module source checker

SYNOPSIS

       ksc [ -d | --directory ] DIRECTORY

       ksc [ -k | --ko ] FILE

OPTIONS

       KSC   accepts  command-line  arguments,	and  has  both	a  long and short form usage.  You can use either style or combine them to specify
       options. When the tool is run with kernel module sources it checks for all four architectures, and when run with binary kernel modules,	it
       checks for the specific architecture for which the binary was built.
       Valid RHEL whitelist releases are rhel6.0, rhel6.1, rhel6.2, rhel6.3, rhel6.4

       -h, --help
	      show this help message and exit

       -c CONFIG, --config=CONFIG
	      path  to	the  local  ksc.conf file. If not specified the tool tries to read from ~/ksc.conf and if that is also not found then from
	      /etc/ksc.conf

       -d DIRECTORY, --directory=DIRECTORY
	      path to the directory

       -i, --internal
	      to create text files to be used internally.

       -k KO, --ko=KO
	      path to the ko file.  You should either  use -d or -k to run the KSC tool, but not both.	If both -d and -k option is  used  at  the
	      same time then only -d is used and the -k option is discarded.

       -n RELEASENAME, --name=RELEASENAME
	      Red Hat release against which the bug is to be filed. Default value is 6.5

       -p PREVIOUS, --previous=PREVIOUS
	      path to the previous resultset file and submit it as a bug to Red Hat Bugzilla.

       -r RELEASE, --release=RELEASE
	      RHEL whitelist release used for comparison

       -s, --submit
	      Submits the report to the Red Hat bugzilla (https://bugzilla.redhat.com).  The credentials need to be in the /etc/ksc.conf file. The
	      tool will prompt for bugzilla password.

	      The configuration file looks like below:

	      [bugzilla]
	      user=user@redhat.com
	      partner=partner-name
	      partnergroup=partner-group
	      server=https://bugzilla.redhat.com/xmlrpc.cgi

       -v, --version
	      Prints KSC version number

ksc - Version 0.9.11						     Feb 2014								    KSC(1)
