xl question 4

[alexa bolas]

and I am stuck on question 4. I am getting the following.
/home/cis90/bolasale $ find -name linux.word > news
find: ./class/exams: Permission denied

and the news does not have anything in it. What am I doing wrong?

Use the locate command to find linux.words.

[alexa bolas]

thanks charles. that worked.

[Charles Stanley]

Great, I was stuck on that one too.

You almost had it in the first place. Just needed to add the starting path location and you'll probably want to redirect error messages:

find / -name linux.words 2>/dev/null > news

thanks for the feedback. learn two ways for that question.
