Not a bug... possibly a typo though. The "[/tmp/old] mv . ../new" line destroys the definition of "current directory". The "mkdir fff" can't work since the current directory is no longer there, and is indicated by the lines: [/tmp/old] ls -la total 0 (?)
There is nothing to take a directory of. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jesse I Pollard, II Email: pollard@navo.hpc.mil
