Hi
I am getting this messg. when i open host file ATTENTION Found a swap file by the name "/etc/.hosts.swp" dated: Fri Apr 20 14:41:42 2001 owned by: root file name: /etc/hosts host name: linux user name: root process ID: 484 While opening file "/etc/hosts" dated: Thu Mar 7 11:37:58 2002
CAN I DELETE .hosts.swp file & How ...?
You had an open vi(m) session when you tried to openb this file. If there is no vi(m) session holding this file open, rm -f /etc/.hosts.swp will fix the warning.
