DESCRIPTION

13       rfrm  provides an interface to the shift remote file I/O daemon (rfiod)
14       for removing entries for one or more files from a directory.
15
16       If filename is a symbolic link, the link will be removed, but the  file
17       or directory to which it refers will not be deleted.
18
19       The  filename or directory argument is either a remote path name of the
20       form:
21
22              hostname:path
23
24       or a local path name (not containing the :/ character combination).

28
29       -f     Never prompts.
30
31       -r     Recursively remove directories and subdirectories in  the  argu‐
32              ment list. The directory will be emptied of files and removed.

NOTES

38       Although  rfrm supports a list of file names or directories it does not
39       support regular expressions (regexp(5)).  For instance,
40
41              rfrm host:/a/b/c\∗
42
43       will not work.
