Open up /etc/mtree/BSD.usr.dist with your favourite pager and search for the man directory. The following command will work, more or less. ;-) /^ man Note that it's 8 spaces and not a tab.

They're all mode 0755. Ciao, Sheldon. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
