Dave, what is the "current" entry for in your perm.local? Do you want
every subdirectory of "/home" to have 755 perms? Not sure about that
wild card but you might try:

/home/*   some_owner.some_group   755

or give path for all directories:

/home/directory1/   some_owner.some_group   755
/home/directory2/   some_owner.some_group   755
/home/directory3/   some_owner.some_group   755
etc, etc,

Example from my perm.local:

/home/cdburn/     root.cwoods   777
/home/exports/    root.cwoods   777  

Hey! It works.

Cheers,
drjung
