Operating Systems Solaris Find and sed for an email address in Solaris 10 Post 302778977 by hanson44 on Tuesday 12th of March 2013 12:16:33 AM

This might do what you are looking for:
Code:
find . -type f -name "example*" -print > list.txt
for file in `cat list.txt`; do
  sed -i "s/user@example\.com/user2@example.com/g" $file
done

If there are LOTS of files, the "cat list.txt" will overload the command line buffer. The above syntax should work unless LOTS of files. I don't remember the alternate syntax.

Oh, of course, if no -i option for your sed, redirect output to temp file and mv temp file to replace original file.
