But why does it happens ? Can I "fx" it ? The message already tells you why it happens: it happens because you specified the options to 'find' in an order which a user might interpret as doing something different from what it will actually do. (This matters primarily with more-complicated 'find' commands, but they still show the warning even with this simpler version.) You can 'fix' it by putting the arguments to 'find' in a different order: # find . -depth -print | [...] Which translates to "find in this location, depth-first, and print the results". (Please don't top-post. I don't expect you to actually adhere to that, but it's a faint hope, and I'm unlikely to actually participate in the thread any further anyway...) -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
