System name:		crash
Type and version:	IP22 8.1.4 (with mkserv)
Display type:		GR3-XZ

What were you trying to do?

	find / -mount \( -type d -o -type f \) -perm -2 -print

What's wrong:

	This list includes:

	/var/share
	/var/share/Insight
	/var/share/Insight/ebtpub
	/var/spool/locks
	/var/spool/pcnfs
	/var/spool/uucppublic
	/var/sysadmdesktop/unmounted
	/etc/named.local
	/etc/X0.hosts

	The /var/share stuff may not matter a whole lot.

	Some I'm not sure about, but as you see a couple are bad.
