yes, if you have a tripwire (or other integrity checker) database around... otherwise only manually. i always have `ls -lR /` outputs stored in /root for a couple of weeks for that case... but: why not save your /etc, /home, and /var, dpkg --get-selections into a file, reinstall, and then one after the other restore your settings? that might be faster... -- martin; (greetings from the heart of the sun.) \____ echo mailto: !#^."<*>"|tr "<*> mailto:"; [EMAIL PROTECTED] be nice to your kids. they'll choose your nursing home.
