Could you be more specific? What kind of machine are you using? What operating system is it running, and what version? What does "ls -l" on the directory in question show up, and do you own it? What error message do you get when you try to remove it? Are you using rmdir, or some other command, to remove it? Is it empty? -- Jonathan Kamens USnail: MIT Project Athena 11 Ashford Terrace jik@Athena.MIT.EDU Allston, MA 02134 Office: 617-253-8085 Home: 617-782-0710
