Maybe you guys misunderstood the question. Basicall I'm getting a directory listing (lc) which seems to have multiple entries for the same file. Like this: plan9% lc /net arp ether0 ipifc ipselftab ssl arp gre ipifc log tcp bootp gre ipmux log tcp bootp icmp ipmux ndb udp cs icmp iproute ndb udp dns il iproute rudp ether0 il ipselftab rudp plan9% ls -l yields similar behaviour excepting the anticipated formatting changes and level of detail. I have encountered no other portions of the namespace with these characteristics. If this were a UNIX filesystem of some sort, I'd be highly suspicious of this listing - but Plan 9 is not a Unix. Does your /net resemble this, or have I hosed something trying to configure my networking? Thanks and Best Regards, James __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
