System: Sun-3/280, SunOS 3.5 (BSD 4.2-derived I guess).
I have some directories which are hard linked together. I want to
get rid of one of the links. How do I do it? rm doesn't work ("not
removed"), rmdir doesn't work ("directory not empty", whether it is or
not), unlink doesn't work (EPERM).
Basically:
/usr/users/place1/directory ... is hard linked to ...
/usr/users/place2/directory
and I can't get rid of either one (or both).
Help? (Please E-mail if appropriate!) Thanks in advance....
