Hi, "rm" command does not remove files, and complains "Argument is too big" when the number of files is large. In my case, there are over 9000 files within a directory. I don't know if it is a feature or a bug. I guess there is a physical limit to the maximum files for the command to handle, but I didn't find it from the man page. The Linux I am using is: Linux version 2.4.18-10smp ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.3 2.96-110)) #1 SMP Wed Aug 7 11:17:48 EDT 2002
