Two possibilities come to mind:
* Try using the "-L 1" switch to cause xargs to run a separate
command instance for each input value.
* You may have run into one of the rare situations where
"find ... | x
with
xargs, I end up with an error message:
r...@aries:/data/Products/RSVP# find . -type d -print0 | xargs -0 getfacl |
setfacl -d -b -n -M -
setfacl: line too long in -
r...@aries:/data/Products/RSVP#
Okay, that doesn't work. What is the output of...
r...@aries:/data/Products/RSVP# find .
Thank you all! And im on my way thanks to greate response!

You don't need xargs for this.

when I use the usual:

xargs unterminated quote error and have to use:

Hi,
Just wondering what the easiest way to upgrade "xargs" would be. I'm running
4.5-RELEASE (yes I know -_-, new build is coming with the new machine). Anyhow I've
been constantly getting errors when ever I try to make anything from ports and it
seems to be xargs being

Xargs is pretty nea
Could you please give another realworld example of using xargs and
your definition of it. I had a glance through man xargs, but I enjoy input
from humans that use it as well. :)
Thanks.

Not to convince you to not use xargs, but you might look at the mmv
port...

Hi,
I've been trying to use |xargs -J [] mv [] [].suffix
but to no avail.
I've tried |xargs -J mv \[\] \[\].suffix and variations but that
doesn't seem to work either. It seems to work fine with the -i
command under GNU xargs, but not under Freebsd.
An example would be

I'm surprised that xargs has no flag for interactive mode (-i) so that the
command line will be echoed to the terminal asking [y/n/!] where y means yes
proceed and n means no stop now and ! would mean answer y to all remaining
promptings.

. -type f | xargs -J G tar zxf G

tar: ./z_plugger-4.0.tgz not found in archive
What I am trying to do is the equivalent of the following:
# tar zxf file1.tgz ; tar zxf file2.tgz ; tar zxf file3.tgz
Is this possible with xargs? I was using "G"
