Solved Cannot list or remove directory [Solved]

[dave]

I have a freebsd file storage server, and used space on it to back up files from a broken Windows installation. Now, I have a directory that I cannot delete, or list the contents of. The folder is in:

..../Local Settings/Temporary Internet Files/Content.IE5/J17V11S0

I cannot delete it (rm -rf), list the contents (ls), or anything. Everytime I attempt to, the machine cycles.

I should note that the folder is stored on an otherwise stable ZFS pool.

Anyone have any suggestions or insights?

Thanks...

Well, I tried everything I could find, including listing the inode, and never figured out what was in that directory. Whatever it was, it was messed up! Fortunately, I had other storage online and was able to backup, destroy the pool and recreate the pool. Pain in the #$%^&*.
