man rpm rpm has a verify option that will check the permissions on all the files that are installed. If you changed permissions later, it will be flagged as different. I run a regular rpmverify script to automatically go through every installed package and e-mail a report. It's much less management than tripwire (although not quite as effective). Let me know if you want the script. -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
