[TriLUG] how to list second of two dirs with same name

[David Burton]

Have you tried renaming 100JLCAM to 100JLCAM.bak ?

It'll probably just rename the first one, though the behavior might depend
on what OS you run.  If it doesn't solve the problem when you do it from
Linux, try doing it from Windoze.
