Hi I turned on my laptop (Fedora 3 with ext3) this morning and soon noticed some unusual behaviour. So far I have discovered that Start menu does not show the applications, a number of toolbar icons are missing and some programs fail to start. What I am doing now is to piece together what happened and how I can go about fixing the problem.
My immediate task is to get the applications going. As an example apache fails to start since two config files have changed attributes and size. Here is one of them: Yesterday: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 368 Jul 19 2005 /etc/httpd/conf.d/dspam.conf Today: ?--xr-Srw- 12387 808792368 825254448 1.6G Sep 28 2022 /etc/httpd/conf.d/dspam.conf I can replace the corrupted files from yesterday's daily backup but the problem is I cannot delete them: rm: cannot remove `/etc/httpd/conf.d/dspam.conf': Operation not permitted Has anyone come across a similar situation? Any ideas how to get rid of files with unknown filetype?
