[1st off, my intentions are not malicious!] I want to have a Linux (RH 9) sytstem automatically rendered usless at a certain date or time. I'd also like to wipe out /home, /usr, logs, etc... And then reboot, but of course if things go ok, it should be toast after the reboot. I imagine I could create cron job that executes on such & such day & does something like: /bin/rm -rf /home /bin/rm -rf /var /bin/rm -rf /usr /bin/rm -rf /boot /sbin/init 0 Would that work? Is there is a better way to do this. Ideal setup will wipe the major useful parts of drive, reboot the system & just hang, rendered useless. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
