I like the behavior you see better personally. I tested it on FreeBSD 4.7, SuSE 8.1, Red Hat 7.3, Debian 3.0r1, and.. wait..yes...Solaris 8(sparc). I have a solaris 9 box as well but that system is not turned on. in all cases I did: ln -s /tmp blah and did ls blah and it showed the contents of /tmp on solaris I verified that I am using /usr/bin/ls and not a 3rd party version of ls, I also tested it with /usr/xpg4/bin/ls with the same results. I also tested it with /usr/ucb/ls with the same results. (for reference: SunOS supernova 5.8 Generic_108528-18 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-2) too lazy to fire up my irix or AIX machines to test but I think the result would be the same .... which specific version of solaris do you see the behavior your expecting(by default)? nate -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
