Re: SUSE 10.1 - any issues with grep recursion?

'morning;

Is anyone aware of any issues with grep? Over the past few weeks I've been
having difficulties with recursion so I've had to navigate directories
manually. But this is getting annoying.

This morning I've been working on my apache2 config and trying to do a
simple grep search like this:

/etc/apache2> grep -r SSLEngine *.conf

And I've tried the switch variants of:

-R, --recursive, -d recurse

All with no better results.
A search of google doesn't show any issues. My aliases are not doing
anything with grep.

Any ideas?

Yes, there is no file that contains that string and ends with *.conf
[19:14:07] [/etc/apache2]
root@penne : grep -r SSLEngine *.conf
[19:14:25] [/etc/apache2]
root@penne : grep -r SSLEngine *
vhosts.d/vhost-ssl.template: SSLEngine on
[19:14:27] [/etc/apache2]
root@penne : grep -r LoadModule *.conf
sysconfig.d/loadmodule.conf:LoadModule access_module \
/usr/lib/apache2-prefork/mod_access.so
