See if the dest directory exists, and make sure you have write access to it. touch /path/to/file.txt.foo rm /path/to/file.txt.foo check your quota quota check if the partition that the dest file lives in is mounted r/o mount -v Hope that helps, - -Greg - -- +---------------------------------------------------------------------+ Please also check the log file at "/dev/null" for additional information.
