hi
I can't find some UNIX command lines on SuSE10 like dircmp. Why is that? And I am unable to find it on Fedora or even Red Hat 7.1 or RHEL for that matter. (Note that we also have SLES, but these are a boxes that I am currently logged into). I don't remember dircmp every being on Linux although I have frequently used it on commercial Unix systems.

I miss dircmp as well. No idea why it is not part of the SUSE distro. Maybe a GPL version does not exist. As a poor replacement the linux diff command takes a -r (recursive) argument. When I used it recently it gave me all diff output for every file. Nice if that is what you want, but I wanted the dircmp output that just told me what was different at a file-by-file level. Not line-by-line. Greg -- Greg Freemyer The Norcross Group Forensics for the 21st Century
