Hello -hackers and -fs, Sorry for the cross-post but I didnt know where this particular post belonged to... In a .br FreeBSD related mailing-list a user seems to have a found a bug when using /usr/bin/du and crontab together, I am posting it here to see what responses we get: root@zion# du -s /etc 2544 /etc root@zion# cat /etc/crontab | grep du 30 19 * * 5 root /usr/bin/du -s /etc >> /tmp/lele root@zion# date Fri Feb 9 19:29:30 BRST 2007 root@zion# cat /tmp/lele 5088 /etc root@zion# du -s /etc 2544 /etc What gives that when "/usr/bin/du -s" is running from crontab is gives the exact double of entries in the directory but when it is running from console itself, it doesnt display the same amount of entries!?!?!?! Weird bug... /usr/bin/du version is: $FreeBSD: src/usr.bin/du/du.c,v 1.38.2.1 2006/06/04 10:23:08 maxim Exp$ uname -a is: FreeBSD zion 6.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE #19: Thu Feb 8 11:00:59 BRST 2007 setuid@zion:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/zion.kernel amd64 ciao, victor loureiro lima
