Do you have an alias for cp? E.g. in your .bashrc (or whatever shell you use), do you have a line like: alias cp='cp -i' This may be in the system-wide bash start-up script (/etc/bashrc?). Anyway, to unalias it under bash, use: unalias cp Regards, -- Richard Dawe [ http://www.phekda.freeserve.co.uk/richdawe/ ] _______________________________________________ Bug-fileutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-fileutils
