Hi,
I got this strange problem on my RedHat 6.2.4 machine:
Only root can run the following I/O redirections.
Any other user is getting a "bash: Permission denied" error.
The code is:
ls << END
*
END

which should simply work, but I got the error!
Can someone help me with it?
Thnx,
Sharon

Can a normal user execut ls in that directory? You are right. It should work.

The fixup was easy!
I tried the same in ksh, and it told me that there was a permission problem with the /tmp folder. I changed it and it went well!
