Hi Irwin,
Does this utilty do a block level based replication or is it only file
level?

You can try to run dir /x and see the short name of that directory, or
you can also try to use this product Delete FXP Files from

Well, I've rebooted the server,ran a chkdsk, and still the dir will not
disappear.
I've run Process Explorer and Filemon and nothing is acessing this dir.
Yet I can delete it and its missing the security tab(its on an ntfs vol).
How the heck can I get rid of this dir?
Has anyone had an issue like this?
Thanks again

problem - I suspect that a process is holding open the folder (or,
possibly,
a file in the folder). More than once I've hit this and gone to use
Sysinternals process explorer to find out which process is guilty. By the
time I've run up the program and searched for the folder name there's
nothing there. going back to the folder finds that it's either gone or can
now be deleted.

- if the helpdesk guy hasn't yet unmapped the drives he was using then I
think that this might help.
