grep issue (Solaris)
Can anyone explain this (i.e. why the 2nd grep does not find anything)?:

Code:
-bash-3.00$ cat tmp.log
sftp> chdir /home/test-dir
sftp> mget thosefiles*.txt
File "/home/test-dir/thosefiles*.txt" not found.

-bash-3.00$ grep "s*.txt" tmp.log
sftp> mget thosefiles*.txt
File "/home/test-dir/thosefiles*.txt" not found.

-bash-3.00$ grep "es*.txt" tmp.log
-bash-3.00$

Thanks in advance.

Dave
