Subject: The du and ls -l
Date: Sat, 18 Dec 2004 08:54:42 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1103340281.3800.15.camel@myLinux> (raw)

Hi,
	In some cases, as have been mentioned in Advanced Programming in Unix
Environment, by Richard Stevens, files with holes report different sizes
with du -s and ls -l. But how does the reporting of du and ls -l
actually differ? What is the fundamental difference between them??

Hoping for a help

TIA
