I have tried to create a symlink and it threw this error:
ln: accessing `.test': Permission denied
Now I can't unlink or delete the symlink file.
Tried Googling for help but could not find a solution.
Please find the results of following commands.
stat .test :
File: `.test'stat: cannot read symbolic link `.test': Permission denied
Size: 26 Blocks: 0 IO Block: 16384 symbolic link
Device: 1fh/31d Inode: 312075453 Links: 1

chattr -i .test:

Any help would be appreciated.
