Hi All,
For those of you who recall my router and 10.0 system being hacked into some time ago (root logins enabled via ssh; weak passwords all around,) which I repaired by installing 10.2 from scratch then emptying out what was '/' for 10.0... emptied as in erased, not formatted... well... I'm finally able to recover that disk space and put it back into service. One problem, though: it won't mount normally... keeps turning the mount point directory green in my shell. See http://www.cehartung.com/images/green-mnt-pt.png
Then there's the output from reiserfsck... note "Directories 3"... when there's nothing (visible) there.

Well, if this is supposed to now be empty why not just format the partition (only rakes a few minutes) and end once and for all any mystery that the partition may contain. I recall years ago that there was a way to actually hide directories on HPUX, I wonder if someone found a way to do that here. Perhaps the hackers created those directories and therein lies some future problems. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
