Hello, I am Kadimil Darji from Ahmedabad, Gujarat, INDIA. I have come across a bug in UNIX.The following describes it. Follow the sequence : (Assume that you are in your home directory) $ mkdir parent1 $ cd parent1 $ mkdir parent2 $ cd parent2 $ mkdir a b c $ cd a $ mkdir x y z $ cd x $ mkdir d e f $ pwd $HOME/parent1/paren2/a/x $ rm -r ../../../parent2 $ pwd $HOME/parent1/parent2/a/x $ mkdir o p Permission denied $ Here I am able to remove the parent directory while remaining in the chile , which should not be allowed.This must be called as a bug.The amazing thing is after removing the parent directory I am still in the child directory !! The last command won't work because you are in no present working directory !! What an amazing thing , no present working directory !! I think this is a BUG... Waiting for your prompt reply ( any, positive or negative ) Thank you, Kadimil... ____________________________________________________________________ Get free email and a permanent address at http://www.netaddress.com/?N=1 _______________________________________________ Bug-fileutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-fileutils
