I installed cygwin under win2k operation system.
Now I have some problem with using command "chown" to change the ownship of a directory.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ chown -R cvsuser1:cvsgroup1 /home/lufang/repo
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ ls -lg /home/lufang total 16 dr-xr-xr-x 7 lufang None 0 Mar 1 19:42 repo -r--r--r-- 1 lufang None 3733 Feb 27 21:50 rh_opt.gdt -r--r--r-- 1 lufang None 11507 Feb 27 21:50 rh_opt.gpr lrwxrwxrwx 1 lufang None 94 Feb 14 03:21 vi -> vim.exe
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ ls -lg /home/lufang/repo total 0 dr-xr-xr-x 3 lufang None 0 Mar 1 19:42 CVSROOT dr-xr-xr-x 2 lufang None 0 Mar 26 21:03 operation-manual dr-xr-xr-x 4 lufang None 0 Mar 26 20:59 paper dr-xr-xr-x 4 lufang None 0 Mar 26 20:56 source-code dr-xr-xr-x 2 lufang None 0 Mar 26 21:01 technical-report
As you can see, I have changed the owner to cvsuser1 by "chown" command, but it displyed that the owner is still "lufang".
And I find that if I login to the cygwin as another user "user1", the owner of this directory automatically changed into the "user1". Why does this heppen? It seems that the command "chown" has nothing effect here.
Can anyone help? Thanks alot!
