PLEASE HELP! Cannot login to server after file permissions change!
- by John
So, I did something really stupid. Please bear with me as I am new to ubuntu server. I ran
chmod -R 700 /
when I was logged in as root. Now when I try to login as my normal user I immediately get kicked out. Is there anyway to log back in to the server whether it is root or whoever so that I can change the permissions? or am I totally screwed? I dont think I have root access enabled in the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file. I do have physical access to the server. I really need some help here.
Thanks in advance!
