Solaris

Code:

type ls

in root gives me

Code:

ls is aliased to ls -F

only, nothing more.

Code:

ls -l /usr/bin/l*;sum /usr/bin/ls;uname -a

gives me 18700 JUN 11 2008

Code:

grep usr/bin/ls /var/sadm/pkg/SUNWcsu/save/pspool/SUNWcsu/pkgmap | awk '{ print $8 }'

gives 18700

Code:

truss -t\!all -tstat -vstat ls /usr/bin/stat

mt = JUN 11 2008
If mt stands for modified time above shows that ls has not been modified for years.

Code:

echo $0

in root gives me /bin/bash, bash for user and pfksh for admin.

I found also that supershell process is run by /bin/ksh and I checked, I hope, all files related to ksh and nothing strange has been found.

What else is worth trying?

Post the output of both

Code:

ls -d . | od -c

and

Code:

echo "$PS1" | od -c

In case there is a filename in your directory that contains the color changing escape sequence, please also try:

Code:

tput sgr0;ls -l

and tell us if there is any black text before the output turns green.

It has to be something related to home folder of root. I just found out that it happens only within root folder (/root). If I escape it and send 'ls' command text stays black as it should.


I had one script with some color strings in /root. I removed all scripts from this folder and it still shows green text.

There is a file which name contains the SGR command.

Code:

ls | od -c

Indeed there is something cos output of this command shows something like:

Code:

0000000 0 3 3   [   3 2 m   \n   D e s k t o p   /   \n

but if I try to list all files I cannot find it. How can I remove '033[32m'?

Use

Code:

mv *??Desktop* brokenfile
