This works with bash's /bin/sh, it works with pdksh's /bin/sh, it works with Solaris's /bin/sh. Putting /bin/bash would be horrible, since that isn't standard across all of these systems. The problem is that dash is not compatible with more complete shells. I feel the same way about dash's lack of support for normal shell syntax as I do about Solaris's shell not handling "$(stuff)" syntax. I don't think we should hold back just because some systems are inferior. -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "ossec-list" group.
