Why would it just copy those files and not move them with the mv command? Anyone else ever experience this?

Nope, 'mv' has always moved files for me.

If mv is moving from one filesystem to another, then it can't do a true move and instead does a cp followed by an rm. If it doesn't have appropriate permissions in the source directory then the rm fails. The result is a copy.

AHHH! (I typically use 'mc' for those ops) -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
