In Part 6, of a beginners tutorial on the Linux shell I cover searching for files and directories with the locate, updatedb and sudo commands. I elevate to root permissions with the sudo command, index the files on the system with the updatedb comand, then run the locate command to search for specific files. I also cover examining file types with the file command.
