recursively list files and dirs based on permission

I'd like to find a command that recursively lists all folders and files which are group-writable. This *almost* works except I need the command to list the entire path rather than just the filename. I.e., '/path/to/matching/file.jpg' rather than just 'file.jpg'

Code:

ls -Rl | grep '^....rw'

You don't want the listing but the "find" command.

cheers! This is working like a charm:

Code:

find -perm -g=rwx

and *this* lets me set the permissions i wanted to...hotcha!

Code:

find -perm -g=rwx -exec chown -v myplanadmin.apache {} \;
