How do I find and remove files (hosts.swp)

I modified the etc\hosts file and network connectivity lost while I just change it.

When I run Putty and connect to the ESX host and try to edit the file, I get an information alert.

I also looked in the \etc directory and there is only 1 file hosts

How can I find the file and delete it.

E325: ATTENTION

Found a file with the name '. " hosts.swp ".

owned by: root dated: Wed Mar 25 12:09:41 2009

name of the file: / etc/hosts

modified: YES

user name: root host name: esx2.ea.local

Process ID: 28055

Everything by opening the file "hosts".

Date: Wed Mar 25 12:16:15 2009

More RECENT than the pagefile!

(1) another program may be modifying the same file.

If this is the case, make sure you don't end up with two

different instances of the same file when changes are made.

Exit or continue with caution.

(2) a session of editing this file crashed.

If this is the case, use ": recover" or "vim - r host."

to recover the changes (see ": help recovery").

If you did already, delete the pagefile ".» hosts.swp ".

to avoid this message.

"hosts" 8L, 269C

Press ENTER or type the command to continue

Thank you

rm - rf /etc/.hosts.swp

Kind regards

If possible, have all your data backed up before taking the machine into a shop.
