Welcome to the new default behavior of posixly-correct programs. You'll probably also notice that the output of ls is bizarre too. This has come up 3 or 4 times before on the list... The problem is that Red Hat, and probably other vendors, have changed the default locale. It used to be "C" but is now "en_US" if you are in the United States and using English as your language. This causes certain functions which sort to use the defined behavior for that locale, rather than what you're accustomed to. The behavior is "technically correct" as defined by standards, but totally not what you're accustomed to. > Anyone else seen this? Or have a suggestion on how to proceed? LANG=en_US LC_COLLATE=C export LANG LC_COLLATE Have a nice day! -- Derek Martin Senior System Administrator Mission Critical Linux [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***************************************************************** To unsubscribe from this list, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the text 'unsubscribe gnhlug' in the message body. *****************************************************************
