I just wanted to say that I'm amazed by the patience that exists in this forum.  Time and time again I think I'm asking a legit question only to read the answer and realize what a tard I can be sometimes.  Here's a fine example of a response I received in another thread today:

 

Søren,

 

Thanks.  I think you might be correct.  I learned a lot from reading that thread (I've got more to learn about file and directory permissions but at least I have some clue to start with now.)

 

I tried this command:  find /mnt/disk2 -type d -exec chmod g+rx,o+rx {} \;[/b]

 

But, I get an error "find: missing argument to `-exec'.  Did you have this problem too?

You copied too much from a prior post. The correct command is:

find /mnt/disk2 -type d -exec chmod g+rx,o+rx {} \;

 

There should not be a "[ /b ]" at the end of the command.

 

Now, looking at that a second time I realize the "[/b]" at the end of the command I was trying to type is the remnants of a BOLD tag.  Duh!!  I didn't realize that at the time I posted my question, though.  It's at times like this that I wouldn't be surprised if someone slammed me for asking a stupid question.  But, that isn't what happend. 

 

There is clearly a different kind of folk that frequent this forum from most every other forum that I've been to.  That should be taken as a complement.

With the hundreds of millions of dollars Tom makes each month, he pays many of us "customers" to answer questions.  The phat income keeps us from responding with ...

 

"Try search next time, newbie!"

 

"RTFM!"

 

"WTF?"

 

"p0wned!"
