RE: [cobalt-users] Site admin privileges... what happened? How to fix?

You have two choices:

1. You can delete all the files from site2 and put them back logged in as
site2 admin.

OR

2.  You can telnet in and chown all the files.  I don't know if wildcards
work here, but why not try it?  You will have to login as root.  You can
always go back and do step 1.

Subject:	[cobalt-users] Site admin privileges... what happened? How to fix?

Let's pretend I have 2 sites on my server (I have more than two, in
actuality).

I accidentally instructed with admin privileges to upload their site pages
to "site1", when I meant "site2".

In order to keep them from having to re-upload their files to "site2", I
telnetted in as admin and copied the files from "site1" to "site2".

Everything went well, but now the admin for "site2" (same user) does not
have permission to delete or rename any of the files I moved.  I am not
sure what happened or how to easily fix that.

I know if I login as admin, I can delete and edit the files, but the admin
for "site2" cannot.  Is there a command I can use to give the admin for
"site2" permission to delete/change files for that site?

Otherwise, I'm just going to go in and delete all the files and manually
upload them again, this site as admin for "site2" not not the server admin.

It's got to be easier than that...

See, I knew I knew just enough to be dangerous. :)
