As root I did chmod -R 704 tbu
Unfortunately, inside the directory tbu there was a link to /, so it attempted to chmod everything in my filesystem. Now I cannot log in normally and samba has stopped working. Okay, I am not expecting you guys to hand me the solution, but I really need a clue regarding where to start doing my homework. The question I need to figure out is, which permissions do I need to change and what do I change them to? How do I go about investigating this? Obviously I need to be able to log in. And getting samba working again is important. Right now I have it running off of a knoppix CD and I presume I can figure out how to mount my partitions rw & chmod things. I just need to figure out what to change and what to change it to. Thanks in advance for even the most trivial or obscure clue. TB
