A handy package to search through indexed files is mlocate which you will get bundled in a server or workstation installation of a Linux operating system.
The first time you will always get this error:
[root@puppetmaster manifests] locate "site.pp"
locate: can not stat () `/var/lib/mlocate/mlocate.db': No such file or directory
This means that the file mlocate.db is missing because the file index database has never been builded before.
Run this command to build the file index database:
[root@puppetmaster manifests] updatedb
You also can run this command to update the database.
Note that it could take a while to build the database.
