ls >junk
creates an empty file called junk without the directory listing.
if junk1 is a file with data and junk2 is a file with data then
cat junk1>>junk2
concatenates junk1 on the end of junk2
if junk1 is a file with data and junk3 is an empty file then
cat junk1>>junk3
doesn't concatenate junk1 on the end of junk3
The local system administrator says that there is something "broken" with
redirection in the kernel of linux. Is there maybe a problem with the ncpfs
portion of the kernel or both. The problems are NOT present on the linux
machine that mounted the NetWare volume - just the machines that have mounted
the re-exported directories vie NFS. Any ideas?
