Hi, There is long-live annoying problem/issue with redhat/Fedora Core Linux since redhat 7.2, as far as I know. the '$?variable' expression in /etc/csh.cshrc file blocks users' csh/tcsh scripts from running all the time. give the following test.csh script as an simple example: [root@www ~]# cat /var/tmp/test.csh #!/bin/tcsh -Xvn echo " I'm here" [root@www ~]# [root@www ~]# /var/tmp/test.csh if ( "$group" == "$user" && $uid > 99 ) then endif if ( $?prompt ) then $?prompt: No match. [root@www ~]# The script fails debugging. it fails at the line "if ($?prompt) then" inside /etc/csh.cshrc! To successfully run and debug csh/tcsh scripts, we have renamed the /etc/csh.cshrc to /etc/csh.cshrc_redhatShit since redhat 7.2. Any one can shed a light on this "problem"? Thanks. --Robinson __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
