For bash (and perhaps other shells) both are aliases that is why you don't
see any display from which.
In your shell type "alias" that will show your define aliases
prompt> unalias ls
prompt> which ls
will show you ls is /bin/ls.

Hi!
Trying to kill the keyboard, arunkhan@xnet.com produced:

But try
strace -eioctl,write which ls
and compare that to which compress or any other working one.
BTW, which cd returns empty, but looking at strace should return an
error ... something strange is going on ...
