Asked: how does a Mac OSX SL or Lion user search the cluster for a particular file (foo.txt)

"From the cluster, you would need to run some form of recursive lookup for the file desired. As an example, using 'find'.

RAM-1# find /ifs |grep test.txt
/ifs/Elements/avid2test.txt
/ifs/Elements/test.txt

I would suggest contacting Apple support regarding their recommendation for searching for files on remote file systems from the Mac client itself"

OK that's great, but I don't want users using CLI !!! Anyone know a good method (non-CLI)? Spotlight is not an option. BTW cluster is roughly 80TB
