# checkhier(8)

    NAME
         checkhier - check the directory hierarchy

    SYNOPSIS
         checkhier

    DESCRIPTION
         Checkhier checks a number of files and directories that make up  the  top
         level  file system hierarchy.  The output of the command is a script that
         could be applied to fix things like bad mode, wrong owner or group, etc.

         The script should never be executed without checking.  I might be  better
         to examine the differences oneself and to fix any problems by hand.

         Checkhier must be run by the superuser.

    SEE ALSO
         chmod(1), chown(8), hier(7).

    DIAGNOSTICS
         The exit code is 0 if all checks out right, otherwise a script is  output
         and the exit code is 1.
