From: "Adrian Bolzan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: debian-user@lists.debian.org Subject: problem removing a file Date: Tue, 15 Jan 2002 16:24:11 +1000 Hi, I have a file that has been named "--absolute-paths" (no quotes). It looks like it was created when one of our sysadmins was testing a burt backup routine. It is about 650MB and I need to remove it. However, I cannot remove the file as the rm command thinks it is an option! nor can I rename it with mv. any help would be appreciated... thanks, adrian
go to the directory it is in, do: rm ./--absolute-paths or do its full pathname _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp.
