Hello
I tried the inotify feature and I found I do not receive MOVE_TO events.
I use linux 2.6.13 from Debian, ext3 filesystem.
I set a watch on /tmp. When I move /tmp/file_a to /tmp/file_b I
receive only one event on file_a (I assume it is move_from, I did not
decode it).
Attaching a small C program that I used to print events that occur on /tmp.
Thanks

Maybe it's a weird genre .. but weird is *not* illegal.
Maybe next time they will send a special forces commando to your picnic ..
.. because they think you are weird.
