SolutionThe _worst_ part would be if you have no
back-up of any kind.
If you can't get in and do a normal shutdown,
then I'd probably just cycle the power, and
see if there's enough software left to boot
in single-user mode. If so, then you may be
able to restore the lost files. If not, then
you should be able to boot from an
installation CD-ROM, and escape to a shell
from the normal installation environment.

Re: rm * on root directory (/)
A good reason to be more careful. (As you've
probably learned.)

Digital UNIX (now known as Tru64 UNIX) isn't
Linux. UNIX is what GNU/Linux started out
trying to imitate.

I know of no way to do what you probably need
to do if all you have is FTP access. FTP
does not normally let you run the commands
which you will probably need to run. I think
that you will need a normal shell. I don't
know if you still have one. If not, then I
think that you'll need to boot from a CD-ROM
(or a bootable tape) before you can get
anywhere.
I also know nothing about how your backup
tapes were made, so it's hard to offer any
specific advice about what to do even if you
can get a shell to run.

Re: rm * on root directory (/)
a) from another unix server via FTP creates the folder / bin
b) the folder / usr / bin is obtained ksh
c) the ksh is placed inside the folder / bin
d) give execution permissions
e) that is enough to open new sessions
f) in a new session is eliminated regenerate links
g) and finally clears the bin folder that was generated.
That was the solution, I hope someone can help to get to have the same problem.
Greetings.
