Methods to Search Files and Folders via SSH
Searching for files and folders on Linux servers is a common and important task. Here are effective ways to perform this operation:

File Search SSH Command:
find / -type f -name filename

Folder Search SSH Command:
find / -type d -name foldername

These commands search starting from the root directory for a specific file or folder name. You can modify the file or folder name for more specific searches. However, be cautious because the search process can heavily use server resources.
