RE: GLUG: file permissions

[fhensley@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]

what is the file called if it is called like -myfile then you have say rm
"-myfile" etc..., otherwise, you could try to change the permissions of the
file to chmod 777 filename and then try and delete it. another methiod  if
teh filewname is weird, is to say rm ./filename, maybe you can even force
deletion through using the option -f ie. rm -f filename

I have a file with only execute permissions:
---x--x--x

I cannot remove the file (with root permission)
Does anybody know how to get rid of it, is there
a special tool to delete it?

Thanks,
Darren
