As I understand it if I were to recursively search /var/cfengine/inputs promising to set everything to mode 640, /var/cfengine/inputs would NOT be included in that promise. Thus the search targets everything under the specified directory but not the directory itself. Sincerely, -- Neil Watson 416-673-3465
