A bit of a mix:
drwxr-xr-x 8 koha koha 4096 Oct 11  2012 bin
drwxr-xr-x 3 koha koha 4096 Sep 22  2012 doc
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Sep 22  2012 intranet
drwxr-xr-x 4 koha koha 4096 Sep 22  2012 lib
drwxr-xr-x 3 koha koha 4096 Sep 22  2012 man
drwxr-xr-x 3 koha koha 4096 May  7 14:26 misc
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Sep 22  2012 opac

Thanks for the suggestions - best regards - Paul
