DESCRIPTION
Secure Locate provides a secure way to index and
quickly search for files on your system. It uses incremen
tal encoding just like GNU locate to compress its database
to make searching faster, but it will also store file per
missions and ownership so that users will not see files
they do not have access to.
This manual page documents the GNU version of slocate.
slocate Enables system users to search entire filesystems
without displaying unauthorized files.
