:Because you wouldn't scratch a part of your body when you know it might be
:wounded :) Probably a patch like this against find(1) solves your problem
:(not tested, because I don't have smbfs share at hand)? This patch changes
:the behavior of -fstype to report false whenever statfs() on a mountpoint
:fails, instead of terminating the process. I can't think of a bad side-effect
:with this patch, other than, hmm,
:
:# find /tmp \! -fstype ufs -exec 'shutdown -p now' \;
Hmm. I agree. -fstype should not terminate the find if it can't
type a filesystem, that clearly leads to for more abnormal behavior then
if it just gave a warning.
Please go ahead and commit your patch!
