No ls colors in jail shell, and word completion bug

[djoole]

Hi,

When i log into the Jail shell (jexec 1 /bin/csh), and then i use ls command, everything is white on black, although there is the ENV variable LSCOLORS=ExGxFxdxCxegedabagExEx loaded.

And when i start typing a command name, and use TAB for completion, it works strangely : it won't complete some commands at all, will complete some but with at least 3 char typed, and when i use TAB on paths it will complete the names but won't show me sub dirs when completing a dir.

Do you have the same problem? Is it a bug?

Same thing happens when using PUTTY. As a regular user or as root I get the colors. Once I login to the Jail the colors are gone. Do not remember if this was happening under BETA3 or not.

No, it is not a bug, why would it be a bug? you're using csh without a proper .cshrc.

If you like easiness install bash or write your own .cshrc

I was wondering if it was a bug because the LSCOLORS variable and the .cshrc in the jail are the same than in FreeNAS.

Here it is :

Code:

# $FreeBSD: releng/8.2/etc/root/dot.cshrc 170088 2007-05-29 06:37:58Z dougb $
#
# .cshrc - csh resource script, read at beginning of execution by each shell
#
# see also csh(1), environ(7).
#

alias h         history 25
alias j         jobs -l
alias la        ls -a
alias lf        ls -FA
alias ll        ls -lA

# A righteous umask
umask 22

set path = (/sbin /bin /usr/sbin /usr/bin /usr/games /usr/local/sbin /usr/local/bin $HOME/bin)

setenv  EDITOR  vi
setenv  PAGER   more
setenv  BLOCKSIZE       K

if ($?prompt) then
        # An interactive shell -- set some stuff up
        set prompt = "`/bin/hostname -s`# "
        set filec
        set history = 100
        set savehist = 100
        set mail = (/var/mail/$USER)
        if ( $?tcsh ) then
                bindkey "^W" backward-delete-word
                bindkey -k up history-search-backward
                bindkey -k down history-search-forward
        endif
endif

Do you think about something else that could make colors disappear and TAB acting wierd?
