Hi, just trawling the webpages, I got caught in a loop. The syscalls page states:
Of the above, 9 are obsolete, namely getrlimit, oldfstat, oldlstat, oldolduname, oldstat, olduname, readdir, select and vm86old ... Then there is __NR_readdir corresponding to old_readdir(), which will read at most one directory entry at a time, and is superseded by sys_getdents(). however, on the getdents man page: DescriptionThis is not the function you are interested in. Look at readdir(3)for the POSIX conforming C library interface. This page documents the bare kernel system call interface. ??? Cheers, Ian
