Is /etc/termcap then deprecated? : Is it maybe related to some wrong file permissions? : I changed from ntea to ntsec some while ago. While writing this, I thought I should check this. I had the permissions: drwx------+ 2 admin none 32768 Jul 24 2002 ./ Since I am in the admin-groups I could still access all files, but unfortunately this caused the problem. After adding go+rx to all dirs /usr/share/terminfo/v/ and +r to vt100 it is working fine again. Has someone a script to fix the permissions of all standard files to a reasonable value instead of +rx for all dirs and +r for all files?
