 In "rm -dfr" if you invoke the "r" option, you don't need "d", but that's overridden so it shouldn't  be what's causing the error.

 What error messages are you getting? That would help a lot. And what version of the system are you running? The only one of those files that exists on my system is the one in line 2 of your script. None of the others are present in the current version of the OS (10.4.10). Are you on 10.2.x or 10.3.x?
