Hi,
thanks a million for taking the time to reply.
If you don't mind, I'll answer you both in the one post.
The reason I am so vague on what changed on the machine is that the changes were applied by an in-house (I think) security package comprising of executables and some scripts. I think they generally do "finds" for files with group write permissions etc. or files executable by users other than the owner and then removes these permissions. It is very harsh and is not advanced enough that it produces a list of changed files or anything helpful like that!
This is why I don't even know where to start regarding going back.
Thanks though ...I was able to use kmtune to alter shmmax which was my underlying. It seems to have done it dynamically, without a need for a reboot.
All the permissions on the files in /usr/conf/master.d are as you listed 'Kelam_Magnus'. Thanks for that.
'saabir', thanks for the samlog tip. I was able to run the commands in the log one by one and found that when I run kmtune it complained that it could not open /stand/.kmsystune_lock
I created this as an empty file and I was then able to run kmtune.
SAM still displays no configurable parameters but I feel I am getting somewhere now!!

dh_fixperms
DH_FIXPERMS(1) Debhelper DH_FIXPERMS(1) NAME dh_fixperms - fix permissions of files in package build directories SYNOPSIS dh_fixperms [debhelperoptions] [-Xitem] DESCRIPTION dh_fixperms is a debhelper program that is responsible for setting the permissions of files and directories in package build directories to a sane state -- a state that complies with Debian policy. dh_fixperms makes all files in usr/share/doc in the package build directory (excluding files in the examples/ directory) be mode 644. It also changes the permissions of all man pages to mode 644. It removes group and other write permission from all files. It removes execute permissions from any libraries, headers, Perl modules, or desktop files that have it set. It makes all files in the standard bin and sbin directories, usr/games/ and etc/init.d executable (since v4). Finally, it removes the setuid and setgid bits from all files in the package. When the Rules-Requires-Root field has the (effective) value of binary-targets, dh_fixperms will also reset the ownership of all paths to "root:root". OPTIONS -Xitem, --exclude item Exclude files that contain item anywhere in their filename from having their permissions changed. You may use this option multiple times to build up a list of things to exclude. SEE ALSO debhelper(7) This program is a part of debhelper.
