NAME
rfrm - remove remote files and directories
SYNOPSIS
rfrm filename...
rfrm [ -f ] [ -r ] directory...
DESCRIPTION
rfrm provides an interface to the shift remote file I/O daemon (rfiod)
for removing entries for one or more files from a directory.
If filename is a symbolic link, the link will be removed, but the file
or directory to which it refers will not be deleted.
The filename or directory argument is either a remote path name of the
form:
hostname:path
or a local path name (not containing the :/ character combination).
OPTIONS
The following options apply to rfrm:
-f Never prompts.
-r Recursively remove directories and subdirectories in the
argument list. The directory will be emptied of files and
removed.
SEE ALSO
rm(1), rfiod(l)
NOTES
Although rfrm supports a list of file names or directories it does not
support regular expressions (regexp(5)). For instance,
rfrm host:/a/b/c\∗
will not work.
