[PLUG] Can't delete a directory..Help!

[Dan Roberts <Daniel.G.Roberts@sanofi-aventis.com>]

Hello All
I have an NFS mounted filesystem and I can't delete a user's .directory..
rm -rf hangs and an ls -al hangs as well..
Have any thoughts on how to fix my problem!

Here is an ls -al of the directory
$ ls -alrt
total 53176
rwxr-xr-x     3 dan  users       80 Oct 27 12:33 tmp
drwxr-xr-x    6 dan  users     1024 Oct 28 10:09 .
drwxr-xr-x    9 dan  users  1170432 Oct 28 10:13 ..
drwxr-xr-x    2 dan  users 53208064 Oct 28 10:39 .jobdb-BAK  <<Want to delete this guy


Also am I correct in thinking that this .jodb-BAK directory is on the order of 50GB in size??!

commands that I have tried

rm -rdf .jobdb-BAK/
and any type of ls just sits as well


Thanks for any help!
Dan
