The file to delete is called logs.txt so that might give you a clue as to the what the directory is called ;)

Well the file is is logs.txt so don't change that you need to find the directory.

eg /xxxxxxxx/logs.txt (Don't count the x's they are the wrong number for the word.)

whoa….rule no. 1: never ask for spoilers! as for your question, try going to the directory that you found logs.txt in and see if it shows a list of all the files in that directory…

ok … here is what u need: u need $ chmod and $ rm now … u need to know what "all+execute" means and what is actual parameter used .. i will help u wih this one : a+x, simle huh? now .. u know first command, and u know next two commands which are the same … the only difference is what u will remove (rm)

ok .. we know the name of first file to remove .. logs.txt ,,, but what is the second file ? … to find out that .. u need to know where is logs.txt located … use ur imagination .. think !!!

in which folder LOGS would be stored .. .. HEHE ok I think u already get the point ..

now, the format

$ chmod a+x directory where LOGS are stored/logs.txt $rm directory where LOGS are stored/filename that u get when u open in browser the directory where LOGS are stored :-p ended with slash / dot extension

BINGO
