Re: [CentOS] Root directory ownership/perms

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I just shot myself in the foot by change the owner/perms on the
contents of the root directory (my bad!!!). I have done a quick
compare with a running RHEL3U8 system and think I have every
thing back to what it should be except for new directories media
and selinux. Can someone out there currently running 4.3 send me
an "ls -l" of their root directory so I can make sure I have got
everything back as it should be?

Alternately is there some command within Linux that will fix these
up for me (we used to have something like this on SCO OSR5 but I
have not been able to locate anything for Linux)?

Assuming you have (or can obtain) a list of packages on the sytem...

rpm --setperms --setugids <packagename>  will restore the package to
the original permissions and ownership. This will still leave a few
files out in teh cold as not everything is owned by an rpm.
