I'm asking this question here becuase what I have works on Solaris but not Redhat 7.3 I have a simple script: #!/bin/sh change=0 while [ $changed -eq 0 ]; do changed=1 echo $changed done echo $changed exit When I come to the last echo $changed, it's back to 0. Any idea why that is? This works find on Solaris??? -brian Brian D. McGrew { brian@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx || brian@xxxxxxxxxxxxx } --- > YOU!
