Subject:   how to remove directories made by the core-following-symlink test code?
Message-ID:  <19990901032316.A8300@montezuma.acc.umu.se>

Wanted to test if the 2.2.8-STABLE production box here was vulnerable, so I compiled and executed with the deep dir structure as a result..

Am I missing something very trivial here, or how am I supposed to do to remove the very deep directory structure that was made by the core-follow-symlink test/exploit/whatever code?

A normal "rm -rf <dir>" won't do it..

It ends with lots of these:

******* CUT ******

rm: 13456/
YOUR PUBLIC SSH1 KEY (-b 512) GOES HERE!
/AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA: Directory not empty
rm: 13456/
YOUR PUBLIC SSH1 KEY (-b 512) GOES HERE!
: Directory not empty
rm: 13456: Directory not empty

******* CUT ******

Tried everything I could think of! Any help is appreciated..! :) (don't want /etc/security to core dump each and every night :/)
