well, there are 2 different commands you need to use. first, u need to know how to delete a file. the command for this is rm. then you need to modify it. the command for this is chmod. so, get the names of the file, put the command then the name of the file and push submit. remember, all commands need a $ first.

One thing you must remember is to put a space after the dollar sign ($) like "$ rm <command> <arguments>".

common problem is getting the right file names.

many people dont try to find the file they are trying to delete.

so first find the right file.

asside from the $ sign, is that the normal syntax for linux?

" command [file] "

with the quotes as they are…i got this one a while ago, but for the life of me, i cant remember how i did it.

do you have the directories of the files you're modifying or removing? because that was the 1 reason i couldn't get past basic 6 B)

its simple, you have to remove the logs, so what is the standard folder logs are usally kept in.

pretty simple to work out.

Cheese is right, but you guys dont understand where tracking logs are kept. "logs" and the URL address is all you need :p
