Re: finding world-writable files - with find

Not clear what you are trying to do. If you would more clearly explain 
your goal, with an example someone could replicate, it would help.

You say "I'm not completely getting all of the world writible system 
files". Well, what are you getting? Again, an example would help.

sed -i '/pattern/d' /etc/rc.local is going to delete matching lines from 
/etc/rc.local file. Is that really what you want? I don't think so. In 
any case, it's not going to delete any lines, because the pattern is not 
going to match.

I would suggest one runs "find" to find world-writable files. sed is 
very powerful and useful, but I don't see what it has to do with this 
particular exercise. Maybe I'm missing something?

======================================= original post

I have a question on how to find world writable files.

sed -i '/find \/selinux -type f -perm +0002 -exec chmod o-w {} \\;/d' 
/etc/rc.local

sed -i '/find \/ -perm -2 -a \\( -type d -o -type f \\) -exec ls -ld {} 
\\;/d' /etc/rc.local

is there something else I can add to make sure all the world writable 
files are found?
