How do you delete a directory you don't own in an NFS directory you do?
- by John Ellinwood
There should be a simple answer to this, but I can't find it.
~me/work>ls -la
drwxrwxr-x 3 me mygroup .
drwxrwxr-x 3 me mygroup ..
drwxrwxr-x 3 me mygroup folder1
drwxr-xr-x 3 person2 mygroup folder2
This is in my home directory, which is an automounted NFS. Somebody in my group created folder2 in my home directory and then left for vacation.
I can't delete the folder... I can't move it... can't change permissions on it. How can I get rid of it? My sysadmin has no clue.
