Hi, I want to let you know a bug what I found in my Windows 2008 environment.

 

I have a network share folder and put some backup files in this folder. Let say its name \\dmz-nas\backup

The following command works fine.

C:\>gzip –r \\gmz-nas\backup                   

C:\>gzip –d \\dmz-nas\backup

 

But those are not working.

 

C:\>gzip -r -fast \\dmz-nas\backup

gzip: invalid option – s                      ß this is wrong. There is no –s option??

 

C:\>gzip -l \\dmz-nas\backup

gzip: \\dmz-nas\backup: Permission denied    ß This is wrong. Permission allowed..

 

 

Always thanks to you guys!

 

Regards,

Jeyong Park
