Hmm, i seem to get this error when i run the command: [/var/lib] [root@lifeonedge lib]# rpm -setugids -R . sh: line 2: package: command not found [root@lifeonedge lib]# Is RPM not configured correctly? -----Original Message----- From: Brad Smith [mailto:brads@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wed 5/26/2004 2:55 PM To: For users of Fedora Core releases Cc: Subject: RE: RPM? Reset permissions I mentioned in another reply, but since it's a really useful and barely documented feature I'll mention it again. Rpm's --setperms option fixes this easily. For example: [root@satsuki root]# ls -l /bin/bash -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 599860 Dec 9 13:09 /bin/bash [root@satsuki root]# chmod o-x /bin/bash [root@satsuki root]# ls -l /bin/bash -rwxr-xr-- 1 root root 599860 Dec 9 13:09 /bin/bash [root@satsuki root]# rpm --setperms bash [root@satsuki root]# ls -l /bin/bash -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 599860 Dec 9 13:09 /bin/bash The --setugids option does the same thing with botched ownership. Definitely no need to reinstall. =;) --Brad On Wed, 2004-05-26 at 17:43, Ronald Warsow wrote: > hallo > > I found this in maximun-rpm from RH9 docu: > > rpm -qp --queryformat='[%{FILEMODES:perms} %{FILEUSERNAME} > %{FILEGROUPNAME} %-80{FILENAMES} : %{=NAME} \n]' *.rpm > > running this on the distro cd's for each packages gives the orginal > permissions,etc. > running this output against an ls -lR and a lot of "visual grep's" > ;-)) > gives me the view of a lot work to do, quick leading to a faster > solution for an mistakenly chmoded and chowned /etc/, /dev, .... > FRESH INSTALLATION ! > good luck !!! > > ronald > > > > > -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
