You need to dig into the manuals, attend some courses, and read some books. You're not ready to even think about building a database until you are able to answer most of this question by yourself. If you've been thrown into an Informix/UNIX environment and you have just a root prompt, unless you get some competent help fast, you're in an impossible situation. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Joe Lumbley(jlumbley@netcom.com) author of: "INFORMIX DBA Survival Guide" The DBA Survival Guide, Second Edition covers NT, 7.X through 7.3, graphical utilities, more survival hints.

That's easy, the "#" is the root prompt, do a "cd /" and then "rm *" and answers yes to the succeeding prompts...I guess you will start reading the manuals afterwards.. Good luck...

I like this answer! Since this message has been posted multiple times the person deserves an answer like this.
