Shell not responding
Hi all
(Shell: ksh Unix: NCR Unix)
Upon opening a shell, I can type a command (any command), but the shell does very little or nothing. If I cd to an unknown directory, the shell responds with "file not found", if I issue 'ls', I get no directory listing (files are present). If I issue (for example) 'cat /etc/shells' the prompt returns without displaying anything. It seems as if Unix knows about the directory structure, but fails to execute commands on the content of the structure.
If I execute a command, it appears that the command exits without actually executing.
Any ideas?
Thanks
JG

Hi,
Could someone please help.
How do I verify using a shell script whether a website URL is available? It's roughly the URL equivalent of ping <servername> or tnsping <Oracle database name>?
I hope this is enough information - please let me know if it's not.
Many thanks,

SYNOPSIS
use CPANPLUS::Shell; # load the shell indicated by your

loading class), so please consult the documentation of your shell of choice.
