The google's hits you mention do what I said in my last paragraph (first post). Recall that I said: In *general* there is no way. Noone of these tools can succeed in all cases. And this is becuase Unix - and Linux based OSes in our case - are multi-user Operating Systems. A free i-node can be used by another user's process the next second you rm your file.
