- This may not be Multinet's fault but:
- Using NFS/SHARE 1.1.1 (a Mac product), the last directory
- in a chain is not typed as a .DIR file, but as an
- ordinary file. I could not delete (trash) the file
- except through DCL by first setting the file type
- to /dir.
-
- Sorry no more specifics yet but can try to replicate.
- Some notes: the file names were quite large and the
- directory levels were as few as seven. _Every_ last
- subdirectory was missing the directory attribute.
