- I've discovered that I have a lot of space locked up in empty
- directory entries (like 50+Meg), and I'd really like to get that
- space back so that I can put files in that space.
-
- Is there any way of removing those directory entries to free
- up the space for files (I have a 3.11 server 486/EISA/SCSI)
- short of backing it up and re-formatting it, or will that even
- do it?
-
- Thanks in advance.
