Hi,
Given an NFS mounting on a solaris box
that I cannot attempt to delete (then recreate):

   /export/home/prerelease

How do I delete all files and subdirs under it?
I've tried 10 variations of the <delete> task
and really don't want to explicitly name all
the filetypes with <fileset>.

Try adding the attribute defaultexcludes="no" to your fileset.  This
is documented at the end of "Directory-based Tasks" in the Ant manual.
