Fetching files

[Guest_imported]

I need to find all files with the name of the person who owns the file.

ls -l gives me:

-rw-r--r-- 1 smith mygroup 58 Dec 4 2001 zy


I want to get all files with the smith name:

find . \(grep smith\) -exec ls {}\;

This is not working. Any suggestions??

man find

-user uname
True if the file belongs to the user uname. If
uname is numeric and does not appear as a login
name in the /etc/passwd file, it is taken as a
user ID.


find . -user user2find

This should work for you:


find . -exec ls -l {} \; | grep smith =================
