     I think I was actually using "find -type d" alone, which works on
    redhat.. Got to use
    "find . -type d" here.

       Well, I'm used to redhat bash, and even though this is bash, on
    redhat "ls x* -d" is good syntax; on freebsd it isn't. So that was it..
    got what I wanted with "ls -d x*". :)

    Thanks
