    I am having problems with the AIX 5.3 find command:

    find $HOME -name 'myfile.ini' -o name '*.txt' <-------I want the search to ignore case. How do I do this?

    -->Eventually the below ported to AIX is what I am going for:
    for file in `find -iname "myfile.ini" -o -iname ".txt"`
    do
    typeset -l strMyVar=""

    typeset -l strFileName=$(basename "$file")
    if ;
    then
    strMyVar=$(cat $file | grep -i "authority=")
    print $strMyVar >> ./mylogfile.txt
    fi
    done

    I sooo need the help on this....my confidence level on this is sinking fast.
