Re: [cobalt-users] Chown multiple files?



This command should be exectued 1 directory above the permissions you are wishing to change. Say the came of the directory and files you want to chown is /web/docs/domainname you should cd to /web/docs and execute chown -R ownername:groupname

That should get you going. If you have any questions please feel free to email me back.

Hi,

I am in the process of converting a client's site from FP to Dreamweaver.
I have uninstalled the FP extensions, and removed all the FP code from
the files. I am now ready to FTP all the newly cleaned up files back to
the Raq, but I am having problems because the ownership of all the files
is set to HTTPD.

I need to change all the files to ADMIN so I can use FTP. Is there a a
variation of CHOWN that will let me changes all files owned by HTTPD to
ADMIN in one command? It is a fairly large site, so I would like to avoid
changing each file individually.

Thanks
