I believe you can put quotes around the directory so in this case it would be: cd /mnt/windows/"Program Files" Aaron At 07:10 AM 10/2/2000 -0400, you wrote: Have you tried this one yet? cd /mnt/windows/progra~1 (progra~1) is what you will need to get there. -- Mark ** =/\= No Penguins were harmed | ICQ#27816299 ** _||_ in the making of this | ** =\/= message...| Registered Linux user #182496 On Mon, 2 Oct 2000 12:29pm ,John Rye spake passionately in a message: Goldenpi wrote: Sound like me.

Re: [newbie] hacker or cracker was: Telneting
Oh yeah, eesh, I almost forgot, when I was a windoze user, I heard the term hacker used and I thought it meant devoted programmer, which I was used to hearing in my unix days (I was only 5 but learning, then my dad changed computer systems, no more unix, for a long time-- DOH!) and I heard "hacker" being used in the "wrong" way and I soon learned that in the windoze world, it is used to mean cracker, just as -- yech!! "software author" is used to mean -- ahem -- *Programmer*. Just my opinion, but I can't stand it when someone calls a programmer a "software author" it is demeaning. anyway back to some hacking??

A hacker can be justifiably proud of himself. A cracker is generally a wannabe hacker, but without the skills to make the grade. Regards, Ozz.
