yes, I am a super user. Even super user can not move, remove , apend, chmod. That is the problem. Even if I move the hard disk to another machine, I can not modified the file too. It should be sort of LOCK. then ?

boot into single user, what's the result of "ls -l <file>"? what about lsof? how'bout "cp <file> <file>.copy"?

Redhat is notorious for its security problems. You'll have to apply patches rigorously. A stock installation of Redhat will get hacked in about 2 weeks.

If you really want to use Linux, try Debian. I just hate rpm.
Even better, try one of the BSDs.
i use slackware since 1993. But redhat is much popular at this time. I still can not change or remove the file.
