A filename with a slash absolutely not allowed, even using the open() system call a file cannot be created. I remember while at uni I tried to create a file with a slash in it's name using fsdb and it ruined the filesystem.

Methyl's example is just creating a file in the root directory with the name CEC821.K003GUK.DOMD(+1) . The ls -lad is just echoing back the path it was supplied and had he tried the following he would have discovered that:

Code:
# cd /
# ls -l "CEC821.K003GUK.DOMD(+1)"
-rw-r--r--   1 root      sys              0 Dec  8 17:19 CEC821.K003GUK.DOMD(+1)
