find /var/www/* -follow -maxdepth 1 -type fthis will not work, except you only have one non-dot entry in /var/www - the first argument can only be one directory, where /var/www/* will be expanded to list of all files/directories (except those beginning with a dot) in /var/www.Ummm, it works for me... ;-) Using GNU 'find' as supplied with Debian.
As it does, as well, on Solaris (the only other *nix OS available to me at the moment). From the Solaris man page, the synopsis says:
SYNOPSIS
/usr/bin/find path... expression
/usr/xpg4/bin/find path... expression
Note the ellipses (...) after the 'path' in each. As well, there are no
restrictions as to whether path is a directory or a filename, either.
The primary issue with the form the original poster used (and it may not be an issue, either, but intentional) is that the wildcard path will automatically *exclude* any and all files/directories whose names begin with a dot, such as .kde or .tkman, for example.
Whether this is a problem or a feature depends on exactly what the OP is trying to do.

if you really want a comma seperated list, the check out sed or cut.Maybe this would suffice (note it prints directories as well): ls -dm /var/www/*/*yes, this might workIndeed it does too.
