I have a User Directory named  "kitty" I want to change all the
directories. files to the owner kitty .
There are some other owners of files that I want to change to kitty.

chown -R kitty  kitty:kitty

Is this Correct ?

The correct command is:

	chown -R kitty:kitty kitty

The "-R" means "recursive". The "kitty:kitty" define the user and group
you want the files chown'd to, the last "kitty" is the directory (and
everything it contains) you want to operate on.
