rm

[Chiu, PCM (Peter)]

How about

find directory -name ".htaccess" -exec rm -f {} \;

To be sure, you can list out the files first 

find directory -name ".htaccess" -exec ls -ls {} \;

Does anyone know how to delete files with the same name recursively?

I update my web mirror site every night going from a Frontpage enabled 
site that I admin to a remote site where I only have user privilidges.

I have to delete those lovely .htaccess files out of every web in order 
to view the files on the remote/mirror site.

I wish I could do this:

rm -R .htaccess

and have it delete all of them at once.

Does anyone know of a way to make this work?
