Hey all, I'm trying to do a find of all files with the phrase 'varnish' in the name, but want to exclude a user home directory called /usr/local/digitalplatform. Here's what I was able to come up with: find / -path '/usr/local/digitalplatform/*' -prune -o -name "*varnish*" Which results in this: [root at uszmpwsls014lb ~]# find / -path '/usr/local/digitalplatform/*' -prune -o -name "*varnish*" | grep digitalplatform /usr/local/digitalplatform/.bash_logout /usr/local/digitalplatform/varnish-2.1.5.tar.gz /usr/local/digitalplatform/.viminfo /usr/local/digitalplatform/.ssh /usr/local/digitalplatform/varnish-1360.tar.gz /usr/local/digitalplatform/.emacs /usr/local/digitalplatform/varnishncsa-init /usr/local/digitalplatform/varnish-sysconfig-stg /usr/local/digitalplatform/memcached-1.4.7.tar.gz /usr/local/digitalplatform/.bash_profile /usr/local/digitalplatform/.mozilla /usr/local/digitalplatform/.subversion /usr/local/digitalplatform/.bashrc /usr/local/digitalplatform/.zshrc /usr/local/digitalplatform/varnish-sysconfig /usr/local/digitalplatform/default.vcl /usr/local/digitalplatform/1360-apache-stage.tar.gz /usr/local/digitalplatform/.bash_history /usr/local/digitalplatform/memcached-1.4.7 /usr/local/digitalplatform/httpd.conf /usr/local/digitalplatform/varnish-2.1.5 /usr/local/digitalplatform/varnish_reload_vcl /usr/local/digitalplatform/varnish-prod.tar.gz /usr/local/digitalplatform/varnish-init /usr/local/digitalplatform/1360-stage-apache.tar.gz I'd like to know what I'm doing wrong, and how I can best achieve the desired results?
