hmm, thanks for tracking that one down, but I somehow get the feeling this isn't a trailing space at all why? simple, the command is parsed by the shell, and without adding some escape chars (e.g. \ ) or adding quotes around the path (e.g. "/path/to/template ") the additional space will be ignored ... (you can verify that with touch test ) nevertheless, probably something like a high space or some strange UTF8 characters got pasted along with the actual data ... best, Herbert > Hope that helps somebody. > > Marcus > _______________________________________________ > Vserver mailing list > [email protected] > http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver _______________________________________________ Vserver mailing list [email protected] http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
