I know that I can do it recursively.  However, the privileges needed vary by
file and directory.  Some files need execute, some dont.  Some directories
need write privileges, most dont.  I reached the point where I was setting
the protections on individual files to get them set properly, now I want to
copy the protections.  The best way I can see to do that is to read in the
protections on each file under ORACLE_HOME and write out a shells script
that sets the protections for each file.
