A few days back, I have to find in my machine files that belong to a user or to a group. The general form are like below:
# find location -user username -group groupname
To find files in / directory owned by user foo:
# find / -user foo
To find files in / directory owned by user in group bar:
# find / -group bar
To find files in directory / owned by user foo and group bar:
# find / -user foo -group bar
You can also use uid or gid
To find files belong to uid 500:
# find / -uid 500
To find files that belong to gid 500
# find / -gid 500
