To: current@freebsd.org Date: Mon, 22 Sep 1997 01:14:12 -0400 (EDT) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL32 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-current@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I recently upgraded my system to -current and noticed that the behavior in rm -fr has changed in the past month. rm -fr /tmp/dir/ and rm -fr /tmp/dir Used to work just fine. Now, I get a Operation not Permitted error message on the top one for every file in the directory. The bottom one continues to work just fine though. -- Keith Mitchell Head Administrator: acm.vt.edu Email: kmitch@weenix.guru.org PGP key available upon request http://weenix.guru.org/~kmitch Address and URL (c) 1997 Keith Mitchell - All Rights Reserved Unauthorized use or duplication prohibited
