Have you looked in the trash? (left click on traschcan, right click on the file you want to restore, choose "restore")

How did you delete it?

Why did you delete it?

What distro are you using?

What file-system is /etc on?

Cheers,
Tink

P.S.: Why are you working with root-privileges?

It is a VM machine and i am accessing from the terminal so there is no trash bin facility available. How can I recover it? I was in the root mode for cleaning the uncleanly uninstalled product.

Can you boot the VM in rescue mode from CD?

And what was the "uncleanly uninstalled product"?
