    Fedora 10 find command (updated 6:02 PM)

    Hi Linux enthusiast.

    I'm having trouble with the Find / -perm command. I am trying to located all the files in my home directory + subdirectories granting read, write, execute FOR ALL USERS.

    I don't know if I should do
    find / -perm +u=rwx
    find / -perm -u=rwx
    find / -perm -o=rwx
    find / -perm +o=rwx.

    Help much appreciated.

    Hi there,

    The following should do the trick:

    Code:
    cd ~
find . -perm -007

    Thank you, but it has to be written exactly those four options. It's homework.
