FixAttributes

From GoboLinux Knowledge Base

Fix attributes from files based on its contents. This is useful for restoring the permissions when files are copied from filesystems that do not support Unix-style permission (like FAT floppies).

Usage: FixAttributes [options...] files...

Options:

• -h, --help - Shows this help.
• -v, --version - Show program version.
• -V, --verbose - Enable verbose mode.
• -R, --recursive - Recurses into subdirectories fixing permissions.
• -t, --true <entry> - Sets permission <entry> if file is considered executable.
• -f, --false <entry> - Sets permission <entry> if file is considered not executable.

Default permission modes are obtained from FixAttributes.conf.

Example:

FixAttributes -t 700 -f 600 *
