If you bought your Red Hat distribution, there's a good chance the source CDs came with it. If not, you can download the sources from Red Hat's ftp site. To show you the src rpm name for the package that /bin/ls comes from: rpm -qi `rpm -qf /bin/ls` You can now go to Red Hat's ftp site and get that package from the SRPMS directory. However, as another poster already said, you'll probably find it easier to write a script to do the custom changes you want, unless the additions you're making to ls are going to be useful to the world, in which case you may want to contact the maintainer of the package to see if he/she will accept the changes for distribution. The best way to contact the maintainer would be to file an enhancement request on bugzilla.redhat.com with an offer to write the changes yourself. -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:ewilts@xxxxxxxxxx Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
