Description Alain Picard 2002-04-12 17:07:48 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.9) Gecko/20020326

Description of problem:
As root, Running ls -al doesn't return all files in a directory.
Only show ., .. and a README file that I added afterward.

There are 12 other files that are not shown. They show up with tree, evolution
or gmc.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Log as root (as a precaution)
2./bin/ls -al  (again to make sure that the alias doesn't interfere)
	

Actual Results:  [apicard@master configs]$ /bin/ls -al
total 460
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root         4096 Apr 12 11:47 .

-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        14242 Apr 12 11:47 README

Expected Results:  To see all files 

Additional info:

With evolution, looked at file properties and they are -rw-r--r-- or 644.
Comment 1 Alain Picard 2002-04-12 17:14:53 UTC 
listing sent was cut/paste as user other than root, results were the same for root.
Also problem appears only here but had appear elsewhere a few days ago.
Comment 2 Bernhard Rosenkraenzer 2002-04-12 17:17:51 UTC 
This looks like you've been rooted and someone installed a 
fake fileutils. 
Please verify the integrity of fileutils on your installation 
using rpm -V fileutils.
Comment 3 Alain Picard 2002-04-18 14:06:03 UTC 
You were right. I had been rooted.
