Matthew, is 'strings' the command you are looking for? // Mike -----Original Message----- From: BUNTER MATTHEW [mailto:Matthew.Bunter@renaultvi.com] Sent: 05 November 2002 17:00 To: security-discuss@linuxsecurity.com Subject: Re: Keyword Sanitization --- Re=E7u de VITEUR.BUNTERMA 04 72 96 57 77 05/11/02 = 18.00 ---------- Warren, There's a command in linux (can't remember the name right now) that actu= ally looks inside files for text strings. I *think* it is used along with the find command= IIRC. What ever you use IMHO it will be really resource intensive because the = script / command etc. will have to go through all the files of your system searching and = then possibly replacing the string with another. Just out of interest what are your keywords? Are the files going to be a= ny specific type?
