Hello, Well, current versions do not contain one either ;-) (SID)[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dpkg -L findutils | grep etc || echo not found not found Previous versions of findutils did include /etc/cron.daily/find, however nowadays there is only /etc/cron.daily/locate in the split-off locate package. On upgrading from "old" find to new find the package maintainerscripts should either remove /etc/cron.daily/find or if has been modified locally renamed to /etc/cron.daily/find.dpkg-bak. [...] >> dpkg -L findutils | grep cron.daily > /etc/cron.daily/find >> dpkg -L locate | grep cron.daily > /etc/cron.daily > /etc/cron.daily/locate Which version of locate and findutils do you have installed? This looks like you have got an old findutils with a new locate package co-installed, which should not be possible since locate Depends on the new find. cu andreas -- `What a good friend you are to him, Dr. Maturin.
