BSD

I'm trying to understand what is happening.
The "setup".
System running OpenBSD 3.3
Connect to the system using PuTTy or with the SSH.COM SSH client, issue a DF command.
First line that comes back is:
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on


When I connect the the same OpenBSD box using an SSH client based on the wodSSH component and issueing an DF command I get as first line:
Filesystem 512-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on

(in both cases using the same username/password and the same terminal type).

Note the difference is the BLOCK size.

(I know that doing a DF -K will give it in 1K blocks, but as said I'm trying to understand the difference).

(clients are running from a Windows 2000 station)


Doing the same towards a Red Hat 9 box will always give the 1K blocks.


dirk.

login both ways, run the following commands, and post the results:

ps -ft `tty`
type df
echo BLOCKSIZE = $BLOCKSIZE

Using PuTTy
ps -ft 'tty'
ps: illegal option -- f
usage: ps [-][acCehjklmrSTuvwx] [-O|o fmt] [-p pid] [-t tty] [-U user]
[-M core] [-N system] [-W swap]
ps [-L]
type df
df is an alias for 'df -k'
blocksize=$blocksize


Using the wodSSH component:
ps: illegal option -- f
usage: ps [-][acCehjklmrSTuvwx] [-O|o fmt] [-p pid] [-t tty] [-U user]
[-M core] [-N system] [-W swap]
ps [-L]
df is a tracked alias for /bin/df
blocksize=


dirk.

Try again, this time using backticks rathers than single quotes, upper case letters etc. If you can't type, cut and paste.

what are "backticks"?

I did copy paste the info....



dirk

Let me get this straight...

You carefully copied in
echo BLOCKSIZE = $BLOCKSIZE
and you got:
blocksize=$blocksize
for your answer? Whoa! At this point, I must bail out, your system is behaving in ways that I don't understand.

PuTTy:
$ ps -ft `tty`
ps: illegal option -- f
usage: ps [-][acCehjklmrSTuvwx] [-O|o fmt] [-p pid] [-t tty] [-U user]
[-M core] [-N system] [-W swap]
ps [-L]
$ type df
df is an alias for 'df -k'
$ echo BLOCKSIZE = $BLOCKSIZE
BLOCKSIZE =


wodSSH
$ ps -ft `tty`
ps: illegal option -- f
usage: ps [-][acCehjklmrSTuvwx] [-O|o fmt] [-p pid] [-t tty] [-U user]
[-M core] [-N system] [-W swap]
ps [-L]
$ type df
df is a tracked alias for /bin/df
$ echo BLOCKSIZE = $BLOCKSIZE
BLOCKSIZE =
