Subject: [CentOS] Removing a file that starts with dashes

How can I remove this file?

-rw-r--r-- 1 rootroot   28707 Mar 31 12:31 --backup=numbered

 

I've tried a few different methods, but most attempts interprets the file
name as a switch (which it doesn't understand).

 

TIA,

Re: [CentOS] centos 64 bit

[Roberto Alvarado]

In yum.conf you can try:

multilib_policy=best

With this yum priorize the packages based on your architecture, but dont 
exclude the all the i386 packages if you have a x64 system.

Re: [CentOS] CentOS 5.5 php configure errors

[Roberto Alvarado]

You need to install the devel packages:

libxml2-devel.i386
libxml2-devel.x86_64

Re: [CentOS] FTP accounts

[Roberto Alvarado]

If you are using proftpd, you have to add this line to the config file:

DefaultRoot ~

More info at:

Hello,

I have setup a centos server running 5.5 and I have a problem with the 
FTP settings.


Currently I have two FTP accounts based on that server, they lead to:

/home/bella
/home/carmen

Currently the FPT accounts starts in the home directory when they are 
logged in. But they are able to see all directories on the server. 
What can I do to make sure they cant come out of there home directory?
