Hello there,
My pwd is anywhere but /backup and i do:
# tar -C /backup -cf /backup/tmp.tar tmp-*.txt
I then get the following error:
tar: tmp-*.txt: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
But it works fine if i do any of the following:
# tar -C /backup -cf /backup/tmp.tar tmp-1.txt tmp-2.txt tmp-3.txt
# tar -cf /backup/tmp.tar /backup/tmp-*.txt
# cd /backup
# tar -cf /backup/tmp.tar tmp-*.txt
# cd /backup
# tar -C /backup -cf /backup/tmp.tar tmp-*.txt
Is this a bug or just a feature that i am to stupid to figure out how to
use properly?
regards
Martin Jespersen
