Hi! I was playing around with Tar, and done a verry foolish thing.. :-) tar -cvf --exclude=files.txt allfiles.tar * That gives me a '--exclude=files.txt' file. Trying to remove it as 'rm -i --exclude=files.txt' was unpossible. But when I go upp one directory, then it was easy to remove the file. rm -i Backupfiles/--exclude=files.txt ..but maby you allready know about this. :-) - * Linux - a more stable way to live * - -- Mvh Rolf Edlund Tel:070-3049194
