Hi,
I get different results when I execute pwd with full path.
If I execute in my home dir the pwd command. edckeon1-a1xrdb1-/u/a1xrdb1>pwd /u/a1xrdb1 edckeon1-a1xrdb1-/u/a1xrdb1>which pwd /usr/bin/pwd edckeon1-a1xrdb1-/u/a1xrdb1>/usr/bin/pwd /home/a1xrdb1 edckeon1-a1xrdb1-/u/a1xrdb1>ls -ld /u lrwxrwxrwx 1 bin bin 5 Nov 15 2003 /u -> /home
I know that /u is just a link to /home but why do I get different output from the same command ?
Any help is welcome. Thanks in advance Frank Gerigk
