As you RHCE'D and you did that! I suggest you reinstall the whole system again. I personally don't think many people will reply because that is a really stupid thing to do. Any good sys admin knows never to use root and this is a good example why. I hope you will learn from your mistakes! -- David Richards Network Administrator -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Vivek Mangal Sent: 26 September 2008 14:20 To: Red Hat Subject: wrong command Hello all, By mistake i run below command on root. # chown <user> -R / It changed the ownership of all directories with their respective files then how i can recover my system from this problem ? i think i have to change back ownership of all directories manually ? or their is other way to do this.... ? please tell me -- With Regards, Vivek Mangal System Administrator Red Hat Certified Engineer Componence Portal Sevices Pvt.
