Hi all,
coming back to seek help regarding an issue. I am trying to search through a particular disk ( that has say 'n' directories and each directory has a sub-directory 'X') to spot the 'X' directory.
On spotting the X under each directory, I want to display the entire path.

Eg, If Disk A has a hierarchy as below:
Main disk: /a/b/c/Disk_A
Sub directories
/a/b/c/Disk_A/dir1/dirw/X/l
/a/b/c/Disk_A/dir2/X
/a/b/c/Disk_A/dir3/...../X
The o/p should be :
/a/b/c/Disk_A/dir1/dirw/
/a/b/c/Disk_A/dir2/
/a/b/c/Disk_A/dir3/...../


The code I tried writing to achieve the above is 
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use warnings;
my @findX= `find /a/b/c/Disk_A/ -name 'X'`;
print @findX;

I want to do this without using Find:Files module, since mine's a suse machine. Wanted to do this just unix system calls.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks
