Full Discussion: Find and sed for an email address in Solaris 10
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.
