I Messed with the Jail permissions, with recursive enabled. How screwed am I?

[chris pucknell]

There I was, messing around on my server, changing permissions left and right like it aint no thing. And then I broke it.

I think, I set the permissions for all of my jails to:
Owner (user): xargon
Owner (group): wheel
Permissions: 0755 - Unix

None of my plugins are starting now, except couchpotato for some reason.

Do I really need to start from scratch? Is there no other way?

Cheers!

That's what happens when you change your jail permissions.

Yup

Can't you change it back to the original owner, recursively?

Can't you change it back to the original owner, recursively?

Unlikely, as (1) there are probably multiple owners of the various files in the various jails, and (2) there are most definitely different (required) permissions for different files there.

Is there no other way?

Roll back to a snapshot?
