Bitch to the FreeBSD folks about their mv that prints pedantic error messages complaining about perfectly normal cases... I just tried it on Solaris 7 (I had to become root and manually chgrp the file into a group I'm not a member of, then drop back to unprivileged for the "mv" command). The "mv" *silently* put the file into my default group. I wonder what POSIX has to say about this? -- | | /\ |-_|/ > Eric Siegerman, Toronto, Ont.
