chmod operation on directories / files
Hello, How do I chmod separately files and directories? If I use chmod -R 644 then it will go through all the subdirectories assigning everything 644 permissions, directories including. Many thanks! -- Zbigniew Szalbot www.lc-words.com smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature

Hello,

Using find(1), you can try something like this:
For files:
find /plop -type f -exec chmod 644 '{}' \;
For dirs:
find /plop -type d -exec chmod 755 '{}' \;
I have recieved many helpful replies. Thank you all. The above did the trick
for me. I have saved it for future reference!
Thanks!

If I use chmod -R 644 then it will go through all the subdirectories assigning everything 644 permissions, directories including. Use the symbolic form for permissions and use X, which is true if any of the execute bits is currently set, or if the argument is a directory. chmod -R =r,u+w,+X . (set read for all, add user write, add all execute bits if required) should give you 644 on files, 755 on directories and executables.

How about?
find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;
find . -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;
If there are a lot of them, you might want to pipe to xargs.

find /test -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;
Replace /test with full path to your directory.
For directories use '-type d'.

Re: chmod operation on directories / files
sorry, I forgot to reply to all.
for directorys, you can use:
chmod 755 */
if the files have a suffix. you can use
chmod 644 *.*
for the files don't have the suffix, I guess a regex should solve it.
But I'm not familiar with regex. :-)
