Assuming I did head right it didn't work.My firewall script ends at
line 162,if I run /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall it gives this
error>/etc/rc.d/rc.firewall: line 163: syntax error: unexpected end of
file.There's nothing on line 163 except a $ character.Here's how I ran
head.......I made a new file in /etc/rc.d called rc.firewall_new then I
ran head like this> head --lines=162 rc.firewall
rc.firewall_new........I then looked at rc.firewall_new and it was blank
and rc.firewall still had the $ characters in it.After reading the head
man page I assumed that head copied up to the line you specify (162 in
my case) Is this wrong?Also after looking at rc.firewall longer I see
about 15 $'s.They don't appear unless the tab key is pressed and the
cursor runs off the edge of the page on the right then the $'s appear
on the left of the page.Everytime the tab key is run off the ege
another $ appears.Like so>$
$
$................up to 15 times.I hope this
explains it better.
Thank you,Gary Martin
