Bug find a file or directory under public_html

Hi there,

I have a quick question about the UNIX command find, if you can help me I will appreciate it...

I am trying tho find a file which is under my 'public_html' directory.
As I know, I am making the command > find ~ -name filename(or directory name) to find the file or directory under my root directory(UNIX account). However, this command does not work for the files&directories which exist under my public_html directory. Then, I found a new command such as: > find /var/www/myloginname -name filename -- this commands works, and it finds the file or directory under my public_html directory. On the other hand, what if I don't know where the file or directory is, that is, whether it is under pubic_html or not.... Is there not a command which when applied under root directory it finds all files, also the ones which are under my public_html directory ???

Any sugestions??? Smilie
