[Cialug] Help finding file?

[Tom Sellers]

What is the Ubuntu linux command to locate a file anywhere on the disk?  I need to have it search the whole directory structure not just the current directory for the file.  


If I use find by itself it lists all directory items but it I list the file name after the find command it only seems to search the local directory and tells me that it is not there.  


Surely there is a command to do this.  I just haven't been able to find it.
