[SunHELP] Re: Deleted Folders Mistakenly

[Hichael Morton]

madhukiran,

You might want to post an email message to one of sunhelp.org's lists.

Basically, you are hosed.  UNIX's rm -r is complete and permanent.  You
will need to reload your last backup and start again at your backup
point.

Of course, you now realize the need for timely backups.


Hope this helps,

HM
