man chk_local_dirs

  NAME
         chk_local_dirs.ksh - Check mode and ownersthip of directories (and files)

  SYNOPSIS
         chk_local_dirs.ksh [-make] [-fix] [-list] [filename|local [...]]

  DESCRIPTION
         The   chk_local_dirs.ksh   script   is  distributed  with  uaxtools  and  uses  the
         etc/local.dirs file to validate directory (or file, or link) mode and ownership  on
         a  system.   Often  it  is  invoked from a script using push, dsh, pdsh, or xdsh to
         check permissions on a collection of systems.  This script is intended  as  both  a
         securty monitoring script and for validation in environment where re-provisionining
         UNIX|Linux workstations is a frequent occurence.

         The directory list takes the form of;
          host:  type mode owner group name # from hostname
          uname: type mode owner group name # from uname -r
          :type  type mode owner group name # from machines.linux
          :os    type mode owner group name # from machines.linux
          :      type mode owner group name # generic (none of above)

         A null host (simple :) is used for matching any system (shared local.dirs), see the
         provided example.  Precedence is order listed above (most to least significant).

  OPTIONS
         -make  to issue mkdir for missing directories.

         -fix   to fix inappropriate mode or ownership.

         -x     to use 'echo' vs. sudo for -make or -fix (e.g., preview).

         -list  to list default and actual.

         -root directory
                to specify an althernate root.

         -type type
                to specify an alternate machines.linux type.

         -os os to specify an alternate machines.linux os (major).

         -name name
                to  specify  an alternate machine.linux machine which will also set type and
                os based on that name.
