Chris, Easy. Find is your friend. It can find anything and do whatever with the results. find /tmp/ -type f -printf "%U \n" | sort | uniq > uids.txt find /tmp/ -type f -printf "%G \n" | sort | uniq > gids.txt If you know the uid's and gid's + you got the mappings, it's easy to know which sid's you (don't) need. -- Frank Van Damme A: Because it destroys the flow of the conversation Q: Why is it bad?
