Ok, here's one for all you bash experts out there. I have a line in a script that does this:
lspci -d1134:1 | /usr/bin/wc -l The idea of course is to get the number of our boards in the system. the funny thing is, if I log in as root I get 2 /* Note the 6 blank spaces before the "2" */ if I log in as my self or ssh into the machine and su to root, I get 2 /* note NO space before the "2" */ if I ssh into the machine and "sh - " to root I get 2 /* Note the 6 blank spaces before the "2" */ again. What's up. I did clean up the spaces with sed so this is not a functional problem. TIA, Kenny -- Ken Donahue Software Engineer phone: 978 967-1820 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mercury Computers, Inc.
