Stumped on the CLI

Post by troybar » 2018/12/13 06:22:50

Hi all,

Could anyone point me to the correct procedure to remove the the following file...

ls -lah

drwx------. 3 fischer fischer 146 Dec 13 16:09 .
drwxr-xr-x. 3 root root 21 Sep 22 23:03 ..
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1.3K Dec 6 23:04 \
-rw-------. 1 fischer fischer 8.8K Dec 13 15:07 .bash_history
-rw-r--r--. 1 fischer fischer 18 Apr 11 2018 .bash_logout
-rw-r--r--. 1 fischer fischer 243 Sep 22 23:42 .bash_profile

I have tried sudo rm \, but this give me the following prompt >

Thanks for your time.
