Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi All,

I'm trying to use the find command to return matches for a directory and file.

For example, given the following directories:

/one/two/three/file1.txt
/one/three/two/file1.txt
/one/four/two/three/file1.txt

I'm expecting the following to be returned:

/one/two/three/file1.txt
/one/four/two/three/file1.txt

I've tried the following with no luck:
find / -name three/file1.txt
find / \( -name three-a -name file1.txt \)

Any way to get this accomplished using the find command? I don't want find going down each directory, so grep will not work.

Thanks!

Code:

#!/bin/ksh
find /one/ -type f -name file1\.txt -print | while read FILENAME
do
       # Is the directory name above the filename "three" ?
       THREE1="`dirname ${FILENAME}`"
       THREE="`basename ${THREE1}`"
        if [ "${THREE}" = "three" ]
        then
               echo "${FILENAME}"
        fi
done

Thanks Methyl, but I don't want find recursing through all directories and I ideally want this performed within the find command.

Another approach where "find" only looks in the target directories:

Code:

find /one/two/three/ -type f -name 'file1.txt' -print
find /one/four/two/three/ -type f -name 'file1.txt' -print

Methyl, I am looking for this to be performed in a single find command, as I will not have knowledge of directories which match the search criteria before hand.

try this

Code:

find / -wholename "*three/file1.txt" -print
