Hi there,

Can someone help me? I can't seem to remove this directory:

# pwd
/export/home/ab2/dweb/data
# ls -la
total 10
drwxrwxrwx   3 root     root         512 Oct 29 18:06 .
drwxrwxrwx   3 root     root         512 Oct 29 16:46 ..
drwxrwxrwx  80 root     root        3072 Oct 29 16:47 test
# rm -rf test
rm: Unable to remove directory test: File exists
# cd test
# ls -la
total 8
drwxrwxrwx  80 root     root        3072 Oct 29 16:47 .
drwxrwxrwx   3 root     root         512 Oct 29 18:06 ..
# 
It's seem there's something in test, but what? I can't see it, and I can't
remove /export/home/ab2, because of test.

Any clue? I have tried doing so in Single user mode but failed, FYI: it's
Solaris 8 SPARC.

Thanks in advance,

Tim
