Description Jesse Glick 1999-12-23 00:14:16 UTC 
I am running a multiuser on NT, with the root install on a network read-only drive (standard S: location) and the user dir on a local disk. I wanted to delete a subtree of templates from the system
Templates folder. The desired subtree is not present on my local disk, it is just inherited from the root system dir. Upon trying to delete the subtree, all files are successfully deleted (i.e. _hidde
n files are correctly created in the physical dir and they do not show up in NB), however none of the folders were deleted--each throws this exception (with the folder name changing appropriately):

java.io.IOException: Invalid lock for file Templates/API_Support in Unreachable file system (d:/netbeans/ie_shared/system).
