solaris sftp：删除远程文件夹

Question

Does anybody know how to remove remote directory via sftp? sftp doesn't support "rm -r" only "rm", so the only way I see is to save remote folder tree in a file with "rm" prefix and then execute sftp -b file And as sftp doesn't support "ls -lR" either I have to use "ls -l" in the loop to create such a file.

Is there an easier way? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

http://linux.about.com/od/commands/l/blcmdl1_sftp.htm shows that you can use rmdir

see the answer at https://superuser.com/questions/595401/why-is-sftp-rmdir-not-working

direct quote from Chris :

In my experience, rmdir prefers to work on an empty directory. If you're trying to delete the directory foo, I would do:

$rm foo/*
$rmdir foo

Answer 2

del -s是否会做您想做的事情？

Answer 3

rm -r seems to work fine for recursively removing a remote directory with files in it.
