In case one wanted to do a little chown'ing above and beyond the scope of most necessity again, the proper way to deal with the -R recursion nightmare is by executing it on .??* and ??*. That will, of course skip anything that has a 2-character name, but that's usually okay, because it will keep you from recursively chown'ing "..". Just in case nobody comes out and says it.. Peter -- Peter Serwe <peter at infostreet dot com> A much easier concept would be to: chown -R user2:user2 ~user2 which will implicitly recurse through that directory. There's normally no reason the user's home directory itself shouldn't be owned by the user. -Adam Thompson Divisional IT Department, St. James-Assiniboia School Division 150 Moray St., Winnipeg, MB, R3J 3A2 athompson@xxxxxxxx / tel: (204) 837-5886 x222 / fax: (204) 885-3178 |
