See the following transcript:

<<<
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/TEMP$ touch one
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/TEMP$ touch two
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/TEMP$ /bin/cp -i -f one two
/bin/cp: overwrite `two'? y
>>>

Now why does /bin/cp asks for permission if the -f flag is the last one? I 
know the Solaris cp does that, but GNU cp shouldn't. On my home machine 
(Mandriva 2005) it works fine.

Is that a rootkit?
