Hello all and Merry Christmas, I have done a stupid thing and issued a chmod +x * -R command while in the / directory. This is on an internal server, not connected to the 'net. I had thought I was in my /public directory but wasn't. The command stopped with an error when it got to the /proc directory but by then it was too late. What are the consequences here and what can I do to rectify them?
I've done that too a loooong time ago, and the only way to go back is to reinstall. -- Mads Martin Joergensen, http://mmj.dk "Why make things difficult, when it is possible to make them cryptic and totally illogical, with just a little bit more effort?" -- A. P. J.
