That's right, a valid file, valid inode, first char in file name is a zero. No program can remove the file by name since the kernel will take the null char to be the end of string marker. The only thing that I have been able to do is clri the inode and rebuild the file system. Anyone know a better way? -Cyrus Azar (AMPEX)
