Hello,

I have a directory on a Redhat 7.2 machine that has over 11000 files in 
it.  If I try to ls, cp, mv or rm this I get a message "Argument list too 
long".  I can do what I need to do with the files in other ways, but I am 
just curious is there a way to get past this.  I did some google searches,
but can't find anything that clearly says what causes this limit and if
there is a way to expand it.

Thanks in advance.

Mike Norwood
