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 -- J. Craig Woods UNIX/NT Network/System Administration http://www.trismegistus.net/resume.html Character is built upon the debris of despair --Emerson
