Description Caleb Cushing 2006-09-15 19:36:52 UTC

example outputs
/usr/bin/find: paths must precede expression

I think the \ on line 1 needs to be removed. testing now.

Comment 1 Caleb Cushing 2006-09-15 19:45:45 UTC

confirmed. remove \ for line 1 this probably applies to listing 1 as well. maybe other sections on page. checking.

\ is meant as line continuation character but a trailing space confuses your shell when cutting&pasting

Joind lines. Thanks for reporting

Comment 4 Caleb Cushing 2006-09-17 20:08:07 UTC

I'm reopening for  a related bug in the security handbook. the firewall init script in chapter 12 has several \ that wll cause the script to break if copied and pasted into a file.

ALl trailing spaces have been removed from security handbook files. Thanks.
