Subject: finding duplicates?

\_ SMTP quoth Mike on 2/28/2002 12:07 as having spake thusly:
\_
\_ I am looking for a command I can run on the command line (from cron)
\_ which finds/searches (recursively) for duplicate files.
\_
\_ Can anyone give me a hand?

How duplicate? Names? Contents? Name + Contents?

diff has some support for comparing directories.

uniq has a potentially helpful -d flag.

I smell a find coming up.
