My girlfriend's forum based on v2.6.2 was crashed by the web hotel operator implementing safe_mode_gid (without any notice) and in the process they totally messed up permissions for all files and folders.

Some files got rw------- and most folders also got permissions that caused problems.

Not having a shell available makes it a pure hell (chmod file by file via an FTP client) trying to put everything back the way it's supposed to be - and I'm not even sure which file needs which permissions.

So, can the whole situation be corrected by reinstalling 2.6.2 (or upgrading to a newer version) without loosing forum data?
