Unix help!
Hi,
One colleague of mine , by mistake , deleted some crucial script files , from a directory.I have no idea if the sys admin has taken a backup of the system.Is there any possible way I could retrive the lost data.
Please dont move this thread as its very imp :-(

Unix ain't like windoz.
if you issue a $> rm file.lis or a $> rm *.dbf
you are screwed.unless of course you have a backup

afaik on Unix when they are gone...they are gone, they maybe some uber inode type hax that'll get them back but you'd best start groveling to the sys admin.
-
Hmmmm, yes Grovelwould be appropriate term in this case.
good call Chrispy

Hi,
thanks for the reply.
Actually what has happened is
The statement issued was
rm *>LOG instead of rm *.LOG
This deleted all the files in that directory..as well as all the sub-directories..leaving behind a 0 byte LOG file.:-(

I believe Tru64 uses Recycle Bin, not sure about other UNIX tho

Sorry to hear that. I hate when I fat finger $omething.
