Since they were working fine, I didn't think of checking sh/csh under -current to see if they exhibited the same behavoiur, which Cat pointed out they didn't, so I recompiled bash/tcsh out of ports and they run fine... So, chock it up to operator error...or anything else you'd like to chock it up to :( Marc G. Fournier scrappy@ki.net Systems Administrator @ ki.net scrappy@freebsd.org
