Hi Franklin.
It's not the filenames he's after, I believe.
It's the permissions and link count.
In any case $9 gives the filenames not $8, and why do two ls's on two different files and expect the filename to be t he same? (unless your name's freddie
)
In any case on top of that the script works for me in ksh (not clear which shell he is using).
