This will probably seem funny to some of you. I SSH
to my Raq3 today as admin and su to root. As the root
user I go into /home/sites/site3/web/cgi-bin and
download and try to install something simple like a
form-to-mail script. After I'm done mucking around
with it I typed rm -rf formmail.tar.gz and hit enter.
It looks like it completes fine but a ls of the
directory shows the file is still there. I coulda
swore I've said rm -rf on this same machine before as
root and it would delete anything. Any thoughts?
