Other than learning how to occasionally revalidate a tree should you change something, it's just not a problem. Perhaps someone benefits from the impression that there is a problem, and if you just fling files around as root without getting the ownership if attributes right there will be. If you work on non-root files with the proper owner you are unlikely to see an issue. -- Bill Davidsen <davidsen@xxxxxxx> "We have more to fear from the bungling of the incompetent than from the machinations of the wicked." - from Slashdot -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
