funny directory?

It was a straight cut and paste into gmail.  The space is not visible
in the Terminal window.  I also only see it in the exit-hooks line in
your quoted text (not the enter line). I did highlight it and click
the " button and then set the font to a fixed font.  Here it is again
after telling gmail to make this a plain text message before doing the
paste.

root at ldesk:/etc# ls -alF /etc/dh*
total 40
drwxr-xr-x   4 root root 4096 2006-09-06 09:00 ./
drwxr-xr-x 115 root root 8192 2006-09-07 08:40 ../
-rw-r--r--   1 root root 1554 2006-09-06 09:00 dhclient.conf
-rw-r--r--   1 root root 1566 2005-09-14 17:41 dhclient.conf~
drwxr-xr-x   2 root root 4096 2006-07-13 15:03 dhclient-enter-hooks.d/
drwxr-xr-x   2 root root 4096 2006-06-07 21:33 dhclient-exit-hooks.d/
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root root 8322 2006-05-05 08:02 dhclient-script*
root at ldesk:/etc#

I do not see the space in what I just pasted above.
