Hello,
    I've got a problem, a directory area has the wrong permissions, occurred
from a dump restore. Now my user's can't get to the files within the area. I
could go around and do chmod permissions directoryname, but i was wondering
if there was a perl or shell script that would do this?
Thanks.
Dave.
