Hi,
I've run across this weird problem with ls. when I do an ls as so it
shows the following.
[marouf@server backup]$ ls -l
total 27277472
drwx------ 3 root root 4096 Aug 21 21:02 home
-rw------- 1 marouf admin 120059167 Aug 22 16:06

[marouf@server backup]$
But when I do a du -h * I get the following results
[marouf@server backup]$ du -h *
du: cannot change to directory home: Permission denied
115M server_2000-08-22.tar.save
8.0M server_2000-08-25.log
8.6G server_2000-08-25.tar
8.0M server_2000-08-26.log
8.6G server_2000-08-26.tar
8.1M server_2000-08-27.log
8.6G server_2000-08-27.tar
[marouf@server backup]$
Any help would be appreciated. if there is anything else that you need
to help me figure out what is happening, let me know. Using RH-6.2 with
fileutils-4.0-21
Thanks in advance,
Nick
