OK Here is what I did before i packed up - having been working late
just changed ownerships of files in a virtual web chown -R www ./* fine folllowed by change of group with the dreaded typo of: chown -R www /* oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooops fortunately hit crt c pretty damn quick but some damage was done. While I limited the damage I wanted to double check which of the standard os file hierarchies are meant to be in group "operator" and also owned by root. That seems to be the only doubt I have the rest was easily recovered. Any help appreciated david -- 40 yrs navigating and computing in blue waters.
