Hi,
I have an unerasable file. fsck doesn't help,a nd I even tried to make a
little cproggy that will call unlink() (who knows what checks rm does
before). I still can't erase it.
Here's some info:
22:11 vipe /bin.old# ls -ldg .
1 drwxr-xr-x 2 bin bin 1024 Nov 1 19:28 ./
22:11 vipe /bin.old# ls -lg csh
2048 cr-x-wSr-x 1 24 20480 0, 1 Jan 1 1970 csh
22:11 vipe /bin.old# rm csh
Removing csh
rm: csh: Operation not permitted
22:11 vipe /bin.old# chmod 700 csh
chmod: csh: Operation not permitted
22:12 vipe /bin.old# chown root csh
chown: csh: Operation not permitted
22:12 vipe /bin.old#
uname -a
Linux vipe.technion.ac.il 2.0.30 #9 Wed Oct 29 00:24:24 IST 1997 i586
I have quota installed and it's an ext2 file system.

If you have any suggestions/answers plz reply also directly to me as I
don't read the list regularly.

Thanks,

ANdi
