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 -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
