i've made this mistake of executing the following in the / directory:

  chmod 755 *

oops
how do i put things back the way they were?
looking at another linux box i'm using, it looks like everything has those
permissions anyway save a few:

  /root        rwxr-x---
  /lost+found  rwx------
  /proc        r-x------
  /tmp         rwxrwxrwt

what's the "t" at the end of tmp's permissions for?
how do i put it back?
