Re: chown mistake

Some of them are supposed to go otherwise. Here:

root krypton:/etc# l | grep -v root
total 1.7M
-rw-r-----    1 smmsp    smmsp         12K Nov 14 10:24 aliases.db
drwxr-xr-x    5 lp       sys          4.0K Nov 11 18:07 cups
drwxr-xr-x    2 ntp      ntp          4.0K Nov 14 20:24 ntp

For the dev folder, you have a big problem unfortunately.

Regards,
Joe

Subject: chown mistake


I wanted to fuss with the files in the /var/named/chroot tree and
inadvertently did a chown named.named for both the /etc and /dev trees
instead of the etc and dev trees.  Can someone confirm that the files in
/dev and /etc trees should (or can) all safely be set to have root and the
owner and group?  I fear that I have done something horrible to my system.
