Hi

I'm just starting replacing FreeBSD 5.3 on couple of servers with
NetBSD 3.0.1 and had tarred up all the FreeBSD directories over nfs
onto another NetBSD system.

After restoring the main data directories (21G and 11G) onto the new
system I did a quick check with 'du' that all main directories were 
at least same size but found a few discrepancies so checked 
individual files and had some strange results.

For apparently same file I get three different sizes from du. Is 
this a bug or limitation with du, or am I missing something?
