Ignore case when trying to match file names using find command in Linux

Question

Right now, all I know to use is:

find / -name string.*

that is case sensitive and it won\'t find files named:

1string.x
STR         


        

Answer 1

If the system you are in does not have the find command provided by the GNU utils package, you can use the -name tag alone with POSIX bracket expressions as

find . -name '*[Ss][Tt][Rr]ing*'
