additional context for hard links (in case any newbies are listening): you can list them with the -i option to show inodes - - - ls -i /etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/ifcfg-eth0 \ /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0 \ /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 2057717 /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0 2057717 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 2057717 /etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/ifcfg-eth0 or you can stat them and pick out the inodes - - - stat /etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/ifcfg-eth0 \ /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0 \ /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 | grep Inode Device: fd00h/64768d Inode: 2057717 Links: 3 Device: fd00h/64768d Inode: 2057717 Links: 3 Device: fd00h/64768d Inode: 2057717 Links: 3 Regards, ..jim -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
