[Cialug] Broken Pipe using growisofs from scripts

[David Champion]

Just curious... the error message is:

"mkisofs: Broken pipe. cannot fwrite 49152*1".

You don't have a filename with "*" in it, do you?

Had a client trying to upload a file with a single quote in it the other
day - like "don't put single quotes in filenames.doc", which blew up the
upload script.

The odd thing is that if I run the same command from an open shell, it runs just fine. I've also tried running the scripts as root and still couldn't get it to work.. I haven't found anything useful from Google... Any ideas?
