[ale] using find

[kenn at pcintelligent.com (Ken Nagorski)]

Hi,

	I want to search an entire file system and pipe the output to a
file. This is waht I tried, doesn't redirect? anyone know why? Or have a
better way to find a string. If you are wondering what this is I am trying
to find out where the new Debian dist "potato" stores the IP address's for
when it boots and sets up networking.

find / -exec grep 216.151.155.78 {} \; >IPADDRESS

also tried

find / -exec grep 216.151.155.78 {} >IPADDRESS \;


Thanks
Ken
