Don't log in as root. That can be dangerous. You can try Pseudo from Brian Hill. http://personalpages.tds.net/~brian_hill/pseudo.html Or you can go the more complicated route with the "sudo" command in the Terminal. Ask if you want instructions. -

Cube and Kopf, thanks. I tried the sudo and it won't work. I get this: rm: illegal option -- / usage: rm [-f | -i] [-dPRrvW] file ... unlink file Who knows why. I'm going to download that shareware tool and if it does the trick he earns his $15. -

Pseudo seems to be no help to me at all. As far as I can tell, it's a tool for opening applications as an administrator. Unless I'm very stupid indeed. What can I do? Where might I be going wrong with this sudo business from terminal? -

Quote: Originally posted by chych Speaking of rm, why do you need a d when you have an r in the options? You don't, -r implies -d. sudo rm -rf PATH_TO_FOLDER You never need the -d flag (all you can do with that is deleting empty directories) -
