erez@homer:~$ grep pppd *
erez@homer:~$
however:
erez@homer:~$ grep pppd ./*
./chat.sh:pppd connect 'chat -v -s ABORT ERROR ABORT'
and:
erez@homer:~$ grep pppd chat.sh
pppd connect 'chat -v -s ABORT ERROR ABORT'
strange !!!
btw:
erez@homer:~$ echo $SHELL
/bin/bash
erez@homer:~$ cat
Strange indeed.
And what is output of:
echo *
and
echo ./*

Subject: strange ( * vs ./* )
erez@homer:~$ grep pppd *
erez@homer:~$
however:
Perhaps something fishy with the shell glob expansion options. What does
echo * give vs echo ./*?

Do you have a file whose name starts with a dash (-)?

Definitely a candidate...

i have an embbeded linux board. connected a usb2eth (rj45), and through
that to the lan.
suprisingly, another usb2eth on another copy of the embedded board, has the
same mac address, and so i get conflicts on the network.
swapping different modules of usb2eth on the same board gives same mac
Good catch Matan.
Another way to avoid this is to add -- (two dashes) after all the flags
and before the file names to tell grep that everything after it is a file
name.
