unix "find" command

There are many ways to do this, but I think you would benefit most in the long run by doing some redirections that will be useful in many other events

try your find command and at the end of the line add

2>/dev/null

This will send standard error to /dev/null. The default is your console. 2 represents standard error in the shell, 1 is standard out and 0 is standard in. You can redirect either like this. If you want to redirect both standard out and standard error (useful in many occassions, but not yours) to /dev/null you could

command >/dev/null 2>&1
This sends standard out to /dev/null. When you don't specify anything standard out is assumed. The trailing '2>&1' is basically sending 2 (standard error) to the same place as 1 (standard out).

I hope this is helpful.

You can be root user if you brave enough!
