Hi, I'm trying to do a 'find' of all files in the format

uuid.extension

I've got this but its not working

find /  -iregex
'^[a-z0-9]\{8\}\-[a-z0-9]\{4\}-[a-z0-9]\{4\}-[a-z0-9]\{4\}-[a-z0-9]\{12\}\.*
$'

here are some example files

./92D4CD14-825A-11D5-9895-00508BEE0314.pdf
./92D4CD4A-825A-11D5-9895-00508BEE0314.doc
./92D4CD4C-825A-11D5-9895-00508BEE0314.txt

Anyone give me a hand?

Thanks
Justin
