If you only did:
Code:
# chmod 777 /home

then that will be the only directory changed, if you did:
Code:
# chmod -R 777 /home

then all the subdirectories will have changed as well.
So all you have to do is an:
Code:
# ls -ld /home

on the correct system and copy the permissions. On my Linux machine /home is drwxr-xr-x which one would achieve with:
Code:
# chmod 755 /home
