You hit the nail on it's head!  Yup!  That is it.

Now... I have to ask...  does anyone know of a program
or method to restore my permissions/ownerships of files
so that it is restored to it's proper form?  I suspect
that I inadvertently chmoddded/chowned parts of my filesystems
especially /bin and /sbin areas and god knows where else.

Can rpm be used to check to make sure that the files/directories
are set properly?


Much much thanks!
Dan
