Except -H doesn't work (at least, not with FreeBSD 4.8). Here's an example,
where -H doesn't follow a symlink but -follow does (to find the file
/tmp/aaa):
sharks 15:02:13 ~ $ cd foo
sharks 15:02:15 ~/foo $ ln -s /tmp ttt
sharks 15:02:18 ~/foo $ find -H . -name aaa
sharks 15:02:25 ~/foo $ find . -follow -name aaa
./ttt/aaa
sharks 15:02:32 ~/foo $
