Today I needed to use the ‘find’ command on /tmp, from outside /tmp:

find /tmp -name “foobar*”

It failed, even though I know there are lots of ‘foobar’ files there. A quick web browse found the answer: Because the /tmp dir is a link to another dir (/private/tmp), you have to “search different.” From the linked page, I used:

find -H /tmp -name “foobar*”

And that worked as expected. There are a few other options listed on the page.
