Platform: CentOS 5.6 x86_64
I have a production server and a development server. I want to debug file ownership and permissions across a large directory structure, which is almost identical, give or take a few ephemeral files in temporary caches.
Does anyone know if this is possible? Manually checking file-for-file would not be practical, given the size of the directory tree.
Thanks in advance.

This is the BEST script to bakup and restore the permissions of directories. When you get the directory permissions list from both servers, just run a diff on them (you might want to make some modificatins before that)
