I have 2 drive sets that are supposed to be identical [I use CentOS 5]:
A: 1.6Tb
B: 1.49Tb
I need to find the differences, any suggestion?

diff will do it.

diff -q /dir-a/ /dir-b/

the -q will just tell you what files are different, not what's different inside the files.
I would like to do the same among two, several boxes, that is take thier dir listing to a certain depth, and compare it for differences as an integrity check that they have the same installation files?
