[cobalt-security] Qube 2 restore weirdness



I thought my Qube 2 was root kitted because ps -A
didn't work right and the .bash-history file was not
working properly.

> ps -A
warning: `-' deprecated; use `ps A', not `ps -A'
unrecognized option or trailing garbage
usage:  ps -acehjlnrsSuvwx{t<tty>|#|O[-]u[-]U..} \
           --sort:[-]key1,[-]key2,...
           --help gives you this message
           --version prints version information

Whenever I look at the .bash-history for root when
logged in as root it is always 0 length.  I can see
when logged in as admin that it is some 27 bytes,
but as soon as I su it becomes 0 again.

So I restored from a freshly downloaded image that
was placed on CD.  Immediately after restore I have
the same behavior.  No ps -A and no .bash-history.

Is this normal behavior for a Qube 2?
