Thanks. I don't know why I didn't think of doing it this way. I
just had a command line of "grep" stuck in my head instead of putting
it into a script.
Thanks

The simplest answer is probably to build a quick FOR loop like this:
---- START ----
#!/bin/sh
for I in `ls /home/virtual/*/etc/aliases`
do
echo $I
grep "@aol.com" $I
done
---- END ----
That should do it.
