Note that 'locate' doesn't update instantly; it draws from an index, which is normally updated by a cron job, on a nightly basis or so. If you want it to update its index right away without waiting, you need to run 'updatedb'. IIRC that might need to be done as root (or with similar levels of access to /var/lib/mlocate/mlocate.db), though I haven't checked lately. -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
