Hi,
I'm using 'ls' and I'm encountering a pretty strange bug.
I just rsync'd my remote server for backup, and on my local machine I
run the command 'ls -lh csf/'
Well.. Here's the result;
$ ls -lh csf/
ls: cannot access csf/.: Permission denied
ls: cannot access csf/..: Permission denied
total 0
d????????? ? ? ? ? ? .
d????????? ? ? ? ? ? ..
running just 'ls csf/'
$ ls csf/
ls: cannot access csf/.: Permission denied
ls: cannot access csf/..: Permission denied
. ..
It appears to be outputting the information, even though it should be
exiting after it says permission denied.
I've tried rm -rf csf/ and re-rsyncing it, but the problem persists.
My .bashrc;
alias ls='ls -aC --color=auto'
Running '/bin/ls csf/'
just results in a newline.
running '/bin/ls -aC' doesn't cause the error, neither does '/bin/ls -C
--color=auto csf/'
But, '/bin/ls -a --color=auto csf/' DOES.
So it seems to be the combination of --color and -a.
Thanks
