> Hi, when i "ls -l" any dir (only when i am root user) all my hidden > files are shown!! How can i change this ? Why, that's one of the fine joys of being 'root'! Why wouldn't you want to be able to see all the hidden files? Although, I must say, I'm a FreeBSD newbie, so there may be a way. But, as far as I know, the '-a' option (which shows hidden files) is ALWAYS active when you are logged in as root. -- Mark Kobussen IS - Honeywell, SGP Division mkobusse@sgp.honeywell.com skjellyfetti@iname.com ICQ#11860734 /* '94 Mitsubishi Eclipse NT 1.8L */ /* Fender Stratocaster: Tex-Mex, 3-Tone Sunburst */ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
