[-- Attachment #1 --] Can someone tell me how this could possibly happen: Look at the transcript :( TRANSCRIPT STARTS # ls -l total 270560 -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 138444800 Aug 1 17:44 NEW # file * NEW: ASCII cpio archive (SVR4 with no CRC) # cpio -idumBI NEW >^C # ls NEW apache_1.3.0 # cpio -ivdumBI NEW cpio: premature end of archive # ls -l total 2 -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 0 Aug 1 17:41 NEW drwxr-xr-x 6 root wheel 512 Aug 6 11:31 apache_1.3.0 TRANSCRIPT ENDS Yes I think it is very serious a bug too! What is curious is that the modification times on the files are different but the date is the same. This operation was done at approximately Aug 6 11:40 1998 which does not relate to the modification date & time. The initial operation was interupted with Ctrl-C (because I wanted to display the files with the -v option) This is an exact transcript copied using cut and paste from the terminal emulater.
