sorting names after doing a find

Shell Programming and Scripting

hi all,
is there an easy way in ksh to sort the results of a find in say alphabetical order ?? e.g in my script i am doing a find for all servers

find . -name "server.xml"

and the output is not in any order.

thanks in advance.

sorry forgot to mention the output currently looks like :

myServerA
myServerB
.
.
myServerN
myServerNew1
myServerNew2
.
.
myServerNew6
myServerO
myServerP

desired output would be :

myServerA
myServerB
.
.
myServerN
myServerO
myServerP
.
.
myServerNew1
myServerNew2
.
.
myServerNew6
