rm -f doesn't work, it says I don't have permission.

do an "ls -l"
on it, let's see what it is

do "mount", make sure it's not on a read only file system

Sorry, I'm posting this message in Windows. Do you know hwo to boot in single user mode. I think the file is a symlink gone bad. It says the date is 1997!

telinit S
at prompt goes to single user.

I tried deleting it in single user mode. It still says permission denied! :cry:

Okay I did ls -l libpcap.so.0 and it says I don't have permission.

what type of filesystem is it? maybe the filesystem is a little corrupt.

sounds like jiggered up permissions likely.
where is it?


are you logged in as root?
do you have rwx permissions on the directories?
can you 'cd' to the directory it's in?
can you then do an 'ls' ?
