Anyway, why do we need three > executables two of which seem to do nothing? Please use `ls -i' to show the inode numbers. If they are the same then don't worry about the space. `du' might produce wrong results when hardlinks are present. You might wish to look at the output of `df' after removing the file. That will tell you the free space on the disk, and it isn't fooled by hardlinks. -- ~/.signature is: umop ap!sdn (Frank Nobis)
