Hello...

I'm tired of deleting a directory or folder in a server using "rm" and
"rmdir" but before deleting a directory using "rmdir" the folder must be
empty..what should i do or what command should be use in Free BSD to delete
a folder in a directory even if its not empty without affecting the
folder in the same directory?

Please.....thanx
