I want to type:
ln -s /dev/ttyS2 /dev/modem
but mistyped to:
ln -s /dev/ttys2 /dev/modem
I want to break this link,but forget the cmd.Now whenever ls -l /dev/modem,always -->/dev/ttys2.I want it -->/dev/ttyS2. I haven't find the cmd in man.Any idea?

It's probably too obvious, just
rm /dev/modem
and then re-link with the proper link.
