Reset your SLE/openSUSE Linux default file system permissions
Let's say you've cd to / and chown -R me:users * and you now have a system that has corrupted permissions. Have no fear, the SUSE team is here to the rescue. Simple run this command as root and you'll be back up and running in no time:
SuSEconfig --module permissions

A simple permission allowing we NON Techs to copy and load report files would be helpful...
SUPPORT asks to send the Support Utilities - Supportconfig
Script Version: 2.25-82
Script Date: 2008 12 04
Tarball reports created when logged in as SU size 1.4 MB
Nervously logged in as SU and created them ;-)
However when loaded using Siebel eService they shows as 65 (bytes ?? )
When copy 1.4 MB to my desktop then look find only a 252 byte list of files from my three failed attempts... Yes Security is good :-)
However.... how do we load or email or ftp these files SUPPORT asks for them ?
The software SUPPORT would like to have used, works fine in openSUSE but will not yet work here in SLED 10 sp2 which is one of my problems trying to fix :-O
