etc/group [solved]

Anyone got a default or close to default copy of the etc/group file for Mandriva 2006 that they can post up in this thread? I edited some permissions and accidently edited/deleted one or 2.

 

I just need to see th default to verify that I at least got spcific defaults correct.

 

Thanks in advance.

Isn't Mandriva backing up these things automatically? After you edit a file like group.txt, there appears a new file called group.txt~ which contains the data that was stored in group.txt before you edited it. It will overwrite it after the second edit though. :D

 

At least I think that's how it works.

It's not actually Mandriva that does that but rather the text editer you use to edit the file. Not all text editors create a back up, but most do.

Ah, it's that way. I'm using nano mostly and it does backups. Why didn't I think about that before posting... :wall:
