Quoth bckdrmn@netcom.com (Dave Gotwisner):
] For some reason some process is creating files called "com4" in various
] places on our Netware server. Since COM4 is reserved by dos as a device,
] we cannot delete the files (or the directories that they are in).
]
] What I would like to know, is how to get rid of these files, so we can
] clean up our disk.
Try:
del com?
or, if there's nothing else in the affected directories that would be hit
by this,
del com*
These are also good ways to delete files whose names contain illegal
characters or spaces.
