Re: permissions and ACLs

[Ken Senior <senior at juno dot nrl dot navy dot mil>]

Igor,

I changed the text of my email to make it more readable, replacing 
"senior" with "admin" as well as the name of my domain and machine.  
I'll leave the correct names this time. 

Yes, I actually did a recursive chown on everything below /,  and it 
still doesn't work.  I can't really see the permissions on /usr/bin 
since it is strangely mounted separately from the other directories in /usr:
