Operating Systems AIX "/" doesn't work on command prompt for searching commands last typed Post 302445457 by meetzap on Monday 16th of August 2010 04:06:50 AM

"/" doesn't work on command prompt for searching commands last typed

When I use "/" to look for a particular command that I typed in the current session it says

D02:-/home/user1/temp> /job
ksh: /job: not found.
D02:-/home/user1/temp>

previously it used to fetch all the commands which had job in it..
for example subjob, endjob, joblist etc...

may I know where am I going wrong..?

I use putty to access unix aix.. Thanks
