What are your actual needs here? You have asked an implementation specific question rather than a solution to a problem. For example, if your use case is 'know on which remote system, and where in that system, the files are' and the browsable is something you are assuming, then perhaps something simple like this could work: $ find / > `hostname`.find.out && scp `hostname`.find.out m...@laptop:~/ Then it would simply be a matter of grepping the file for your locations. `find` has options to print much more information than just the filename if you need that (check the -printf options). There are options... what's the actual _problem_ you're trying to solve? cheers, Owen. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
