Spot on Rob. Do i need to install Perl from scratch, or is it possible just to regiester it in RPM? >/bin/sh is the default shell on a lot of unix/linux distros. >On my system, /bin/sh is a symlink to /bin/bash (bash behaves >differently according to the name by which it was called). I have /bin/bash as well, altough I'm not sure if the symlink is setup. Is this done automatically, or do I need to something like: ln -s /bin/sh /bin/bash cheers, Adam. -- new2linux _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
