I have recently loaded Redhat 8.0 on a new machine from the iso.org downloadable disks and then brought everything up to snuff with the Red Hat Network. I am running across some strange anomolies I have not seen on other UNIX like systems including earlier versions of Linux. For example: The following trace shows interaction with the ftp client. What was sent to the shell was a simple get command. The output from the shell, all 973 bytes of it, follows. The client was sending a carriage return followed by rewriting the entire line with each new byte sent. No other ftp client seems to do this. Where should anomolies like this be reported? @pad2shell([103]get /tmp/makefile.depends makefile.depends) Wrote 45 char of 45 "get /tmp/makefile.depends makefile.depends " S2P-IO: Decimal len = 973
