You want the asterisk to get passed into the find command as a parameter. Also, the "iname" says ignore case, so only one iteration is needed. > > and the missing files are now listed.

This makes me think they are still *not* listed? Last stab in the dark: any "undelete" capability on that file system? If the files are not found, I am guessing they have been deleted. Barring that facility, I hope you have a recent backup. Good luck. > <snip sig stuff> -- Bill
