Hi all Supposing someone working as root (su) typed
" rm -fr ./Some_directory/../*.* " then noticed, in Konqueror running on another display, what may have been directories in the directory from which the command was issued disappearing. Doesn't look to me like that should happen, but maybe the command confused bash? These disappearances having happened rather quickly, the root person might not even know what the things that disappeared were. Even worse, this root person hadn't got around to actually doing backups quite yet, even with helpful tips from the likes of Mr Bandel. How might this person get those disappeared things back? Or even just find out what they were? Is it possible? Hypothetically of course. I'm not saying I did this... (ok fine, have a good belly-laugh. Damn.) -- Ian Stephen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
