[TriLUG] RH 7.2 bash 2.05.8(1) whacked?

[Tanner Lovelace]

Here's what I get:


lovelace kendrick ~ 151_ cd /tmp
lovelace kendrick /tmp 152_ mkdir test
lovelace kendrick /tmp 153_ cd test
lovelace kendrick /tmp/test 154_ touch A B C a b c
lovelace kendrick /tmp/test 155_ ls -1
a
A
b
B
c
C
lovelace kendrick /tmp/test 156_ ls -1 [A-Z]*
A
B
C
lovelace kendrick /tmp/test 157_ echo *
a A b B c C
lovelace kendrick /tmp/test 158_ echo [A-Z]*
A B C
lovelace kendrick /tmp/test 159_ 

So, it looks like something is messed up in your setup.
I'm running bash 2.05.  What version are you running?

lovelace kendrick /tmp/test 160_ bash --version
GNU bash, version 2.05.1(1)-release (i586-mandrake-linux-gnu)

 Those who are willing to sacrifice essential liberties for a little 
 order, will lose both and deserve neither.  --  Benjamin Franklin 

 History teaches that grave threats to liberty often come in times
 of urgency, when constitutional rights seem too extravagant to 
 endure.  --  Justice Thurgood Marshall, 1989
