.SH NAME
nsrm \- remove CASTOR files or directories in the name server
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B nsrm
.RB [ -f ]
.RB [ -i ]
.IR filename ...
.LP
.B nsrm
.RB [ -f ]
.RB [ -i ]
.B -r
.IR dirname ...
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B nsrm
removes CASTOR files or directories in the name server.
For directories either
.B -r
or
.B -R
must be present.
For regular files, it calls
.B Cns_unlink
while for directories, it calls
.BR Cns_rmdir .
.LP
This requires write permission in the parent directory and the file itself.
If write permission on an entry is denied, the standard input is a terminal and
the
.B -f
option is not given, the prompt "override write protection" appears and if the
response is not
.BR y ,
the entry is not deleted.
Entries directly under a protected directory are never deleted.
.TP
.I path
specifies the CASTOR pathname.
If
.I path
does not start with
.BR / ,
it is prefixed by the content of the
.B CASTOR_HOME
environment variable.
.SH OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
.TP
.B -f
Do not give an error message if the file/directory does not exist.
.TP
.B -i
Request acknowledge before removing each individual entry.
.TP
.B -R
Recursive mode (equivalent to
.BR -r ).
.TP
.B -r
Recursive mode.
.SH EXIT STATUS
This program returns 0 if the operation was successful or >0 if the operation
failed.
.SH SEE ALSO

.BR Cns_rmdir(3) ,
