It works fine on FreeBSD 6.2 for me. Could you give us some details of what
error messages are provoked, or what happens that you didn't expect to
happen?
ah..
Maybe it's a FreeBSD bug -_-!
I diged a little deeper, and findout that the 'ls -l' output something
wrong. At least it didn't work as the manual pages described.
The ls FreeBSD manual page says:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
The Long Format
If the -l option is given, the following information is displayed for
each file: file mode, number of links, owner name, group name, MAC label,
number of bytes in the file, abbreviated month, day-of-month file was
last modified, hour file last modified, minute file last modified, and
the pathname.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
But the 'ls -l' actully output like this:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
[fktpp＠localhost /usr/home/fktpp]$ ls -l
total 36
drwxr-xr-x 4 fktpp users 512 3 30 2007 GNUstep
drwx------ 4 fktpp users 512 3 31 2007 Mail
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Note the 6th column is not *abbreviated month*, it's month-of-year.
