This one I don't quite understand. On HFS+ directory size Always appears 0 (in blocks. Though ls -l shows something different). Maybe this is due to the fact that psync always copies finfo of the directory as well. Remeber on HFS+ directory is not a distinct file like UFS. Directory is just a catalog entry so the very size of the directory seems irrelevant. Well, I don't know what 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 dankogai dankogai 24 Feb 5 08:26 foo/ ^ This is # of blocks it takes. ^^This figure exactly mean myself. Because no matter how large a directory is, the number of blocks it actually takes is always 0 (or it is part of the catalog). Dan
