in reply to Permissions Utility Script for sysadmins - seeking comments

Am I correct in assuming that this should be able to be run on any *NIX? If so, under AIX using the octal notation of the file modes will destroy any extended ACLs that have been setup (not sure on other *NIX). It is much safer to use the long notation (u=rwx,go=rx for example).

My 2 cents

PS: I like the idea and its good to see people thinking about consistancy across the systems they manage.

    Well I am writing it to be run on Linux servers I admin, but am writing _on_ a darwin machine (Powerbook G4) - so the whole bsd/linux thing is mostly for convenience more than anything else.
