Hello All,
I have just installed:
- Slackware running within virtualbox installed on a XP.
- 2.6.24.5-smp #2
Something strange happens when I try to use pipes, i.e.:
# find /root -name "loadlin*" | grep -w "zip" | ls -la
instead of making ls -la on the only resulted file from
find /root -name "loadlin*" | grep -w "zip" which is
/root/loadlin16c.zip
it is actually making ls -la on the entire /root directory and the result is actually the ls -la in the /root directory, I mean all files from /root are actually listed.
This happens for all accounts not only for root.

This is because "ls" does not accept a parameter from stdin. It wants the input as a commandline parameter.
Better would be:
Eric

Thank you Eric,
