Boy did I screw up tonight. I accidently ran 'chmod o-rwx .*'
inside my /root directory for security reasons. I should have
known better and said .[a-zA-Z]* instead. This of course
went on to change permissions in /bin /usr /mnt but then
I killed it. Without risking security problems, I tried to
login as a user and 'startx'. I fixed some of the permission
problems but X won't run. From root, startx complains about
not being able to open font 'fixed'.
The easy way would be to 'chmod o+rx /usr /bin' but obviously
I don't want to do that for security. Can someone email me
(private) a full list of all files in /usr with their
permissions (LM7.1) using a command like
find /usr -exec /bin/ls -al {} \;
Re-installing from scratch would be one of the last things
I want to do since getting LM7.1 to work.
Suggestions please ?
Thanks... Dan.
