chown issues
My level of experience is Newbie that thinks he knows everything but really now nothing about linux.
I did something really bad I logged in as SU and typed chown -R root:root 777 / or something like it at the root directory now I get errors about permissions all the time is there some way to put the original permissions back? or at least the permission back to when I install Linux? SO far this site has helped me a lot. Thanks for the help in the future. |
There's no undo command.
You could either reinstall, or find someone with a similar platform and copy their permissions/ownerships. The latter is likely to by fairly laborious, I'd consider reinstalling - maybe even just upgrading might do it, how often are fedora upgrades coming out now? John |
