Check your LANG variable which sets locale. RH does not give you the option not to set this variable and therefore it surprises people when RH systems sort with a non-standard sort order. Therefore the first guess is that your locale is specifying a dictionary sort order instead of a standard sort order. locale Here is a semi-standard reply: Please read this faq, look for "Sort does not sort" for the entry in question. http://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/faq/coreutils-faq.html See the standards documentation for more information on the locale variables with regards to sort. http://www.unix-systems.org/single_unix_specification_v2/xcu/sort.html Bob _______________________________________________ Bug-fileutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-fileutils
