I've been trying to use find on my recently  3.0 upgraded system and
have been getting nothing.  I have this line in my crontab:

45 2 * * 7  root    /usr/lib/find/updatedb>/usr/adm/updatedb.log 2>&1

I even ran the updatedb manually.  But when I try and find something
it acts like the database isn't there.  What the hell is the problem?
This worked fine on my 2.1 system.  But then a LOT of things used to
work just FINE on my 2.1 and no longer on 3.0.
