So if I'm following this right, then I just need to run
rpm --setugids `rpm
-qa` as root, from /, and this should set the owner & groups
on all files, as
appropriate? Except for of course the files in /home?
As for my original plan, I saw krename in yum. At first
glance, that looks
like it should do what I wanted. Anyone have experience with it?
Not sure what krename does, but yes an rpm --setugids `rpm -qa` and an
rpm --setperms `rpm -qa` will reset all file perms and ownership for all
files managed under RPM.
I gave a simple awk command to reset the perms in /home in an earlier
post, basically using awk to parse the passwd fields and then issuing a
shell statement with them.
Thanks Ross. I didn't do anything with file permissions (that I'm aware
of), so I shouldn't have to use the --setperms, right?
Just tried rpm --setugids `rpm -qa`, and got "sh: line 2: package:
command not found". Now to figure out where that one comes from...
