2 humble suggestions to make my server OS of choice even better. I seem to have found a bug in ksh: Here is a sample that doesn't behave as I'd expect it to.
# demo="" # if [ "$demo" == "-n" -o "$demo" == "-e" ]; then > echo bar > fi # demo="-n" # if [ "$demo" == "-n" -o "$demo" == "-e" ]; then > echo bar > fi ksh: [: -n: unexpected operator/operand IMHO, I'd consider it a bug, since the correctness of syntax must not change with the value of the variable. AFAIK, this syntax is considered correct generally; if not, please advise me. Secondly, I still need to resort to gtar for the backup of my users' home directories (you know those silly long filenames in WORD). I understand it is just a frontend to pax ? If it could process file names with a length of 255, I'd be happy, I think. Thanks for pondering about these two ! Uwe
