Home directory

What is it?

Find needs a home directory in which to store its config file and logs.

Creating a home directory

• Create a directory, somewhere in your file system.
• Make sure that the user that Find is or will be running as has read and write permissions on this directory

Linux example

Assuming that your Find user is called find, and is in a group called find:

$ mkdir /opt/findhome
$ chown find:find /opt/findhome
$ chmod u+rwx /opt/findhome
