Hi,

I am using rm -df <dir>

getfacl <dir>:
# file: build_insight/
# owner: jkr
# group: mkgroup_l_d
user:rwx
user:jkr:rwx
mask:rwx
other:rwx
default:user:rwx
default:group:rwx

ls -ld <dir>:
drwxrwxrwx+	18	jkr	mkgroup_	4096 Aug 21 13:08	build_insight/

I hope that you can help, I am a newbie at this unix stuff.

Thanks,
Johan Kruger

Johan,

What program do you use to delete directories?  What message are you
getting when you try to delete that directory?

If you get "permission denied", what is the output of 'ls -ld <dir>'?
What about 'getfacl <dir>'?  Who is the owner of the directory?
