How do I restore file privileges


If you've upgraded your system and then restored files from backup tapes,
some of the file privileges may have changed.

If you are having problems that appear to be related to privileges, make
sure all the privileges are intact.  This can be done by running the script
/etc/security/tools/setpriv.  This command generates a script that may be
executed from a shell prompt.  This operation must be executed by root in
single user mode:

# /etc/security/tools/setpriv > /tmp/restore_privs
# chmod 555 /tmp/restore_privs
# /tmp/restore_privs > /dev/null 2>&1
