[gnu.bash.bug] Bug with dynamic filename completion across XenixNet

kayvan@mrspoc.transact.com (Kayvan Sylvan) (01/10/90)

Running Bash 1.04 on SCO Xenix 2.3.2 (Step/25 i386 box).

We have installed XenixNet on this system which basically means that
the kernal knows that the syntax //hostname/foo/bar refers to /foo/bar
on host named hostname.

The problem is that bash will not dynamically complete files that use
this syntax.

"ls //foo/M-?" should yield the names of files across the net on
machine foo. On the other hand, "echo //foo/*" works.

Does anyone know of a fix for this? I know the XenixNet nomenclature
is a hack...
