There's a nice utility in BSDs that does exactly what you want. It is called mtree(8). Check whether you have one.

    Will mtree alter the permissions and such to get them "back in line?" Skimming through the man page it doesn't look as though it does...
      mtree -U

        Now, how to get this on a Linux box is the real question

    Is there a version on linux, or a perl implimentation somewhere?
