This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.

This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

To add a directory, you have to have both write and execute privileges in the parent directory. I think it's the same for removing a directory, but you can run some tests to see.
[root@localhost ~]# cd /mnt
[root@localhost mnt]# cd hgfs/
[root@localhost hgfs]# ls -l

drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jun 2 16:26 Dbsharing
[root@localhost hgfs]# cd Dbsharing/
[root@localhost Dbsharing]# ls -l

[root@localhost Dbsharing]#
I executed rm -R <dir.name> but cant delete Dbsharing folder. but i lost contents inside Dbsharing.

I think it belongs "etc/hosts ". Can anyone help me ???
This is a different problem than what you have posted in your thread title "I cant remove directory ",
you should start a new Thread instead.
While your troubles remain, you're mixing things up not doing the install and configuration on your server completed (you have just started the setup and you let alone to finish it expecting to work "out of box").
Your current problem is that you have configured your network with DHCP to automatically acquire IP address
but obviously you don't have any DHCP server where you connected your "server" to obtain IP address.
