Hi!
Through a stupid typo, we managed to mess up permissions on files
all over the system. We've put them back so the system is running
fine, but we'd like to restore them to their proper settings.
On many of our other Unix boxes, there is a utility that checks
and repairs the permissions on system files. I can't find a similar
utility for this AIX box (aix 5.1). Is there such a command???
Thanks!
