Yes, anything that should only match at the beginning of the path should start with a slash. This works in much the same way it does on the command line: # cd proc This will take you into any directory called 'proc' that is available in whatever the current directory happens to be. # cd /proc This explicitly takes you to the '/proc' directory no matter where you start from. -- Bowie ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SOLARIS 10 is the OS for Data Centers - provides features such as DTrace, Predictive Self Healing and Award Winning ZFS.
