question about chmod and subdirectories
the 2 distros i am using are RH9 and whitebox 3.
i just copied over my web directory from the RH box over to the whitebox system and then typed: chmod 755 /www/ssma/docs/*
now from what little i understand that should make EVERYTHING including subdirectories and the files under those subs set to 755 permissions...
yet it was not, i have to go and manualy chmod every subdirectory in order to have them accessable via the web.
what am i missing here. thanks.
