The problematic system is using the Win95 find (\Windows\Command\find.exe) when a shell script actually needs the unix-like find command (or the other way around). Verify the PATH environment variable directory order on the systems. Then, locate the offending command line. Look for a duplicate program name on your path. Try using the Win95 "Find..." dialog or the bash command "type badname" (where badname is the program in question -- it will display the location of the command) Good luck, Bill > >Hello. > > > >A quick question.
