Re[2]: [cobalt-users] Weird files created on share by Apple computers



Hello List,

"find /home/groups/ -name Icon?" does find the whole list (if I use
"Icon" only it doesn't find it... when you do a dir, the file shows as
"Icon\r", if you do a ls -la it shows as "Icon?").

But "find /home/groups/ -name Icon? | rm -f" returns a "broken pipe".
Also, if I do a "rm -f /home/groups/folder/Icon?" , the file is
removed... I am suspecting the ? causes the broken pipe...

Any thoughts ? TIA.
