Working with Redhat 5.2 Fvfm, I have a ton of files in a folder that I copied (as root) from a CD. I need to reset the rw and perhaps ownership attributes en mass so that the files can be written to and worked with by other users. I know this is basic but could anyone clue this newbie in?

Ok, last one, I swear. ;) You mentioned doing this en mass. Just to be clear, wild cards will work with chmod and chown. So: chmod a+rw * will set every file in the current directory to be world readable and writable (if you execute it as root). --jim On Wed, 29 May 2002, db wrote:
