Hi all, do You know if it is possible to show file or directory permission list in "numeric" mode?

Thank You

I usualy use find -perm to seek for a certain
chmod mask (man chmod to see 'em all).Like if I need to find group writable files:
find . -perm 0020.

Of course you can use OR ( ||) in find to list
all cases :)

I'm attaching a script called "getchmod", courtesy of Jack Mahaffey, which will give you the numeric values.
Usage: getchmod
ex: getchmod /sbin/vgscan
. getchmod /sbin/*
