I get that, and i found it I can, however not execute it. whenever i go to the usr/sbin and type "chown" i get chown: Command not found. i find this pretty strange as ls -l shows: -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 6688 Jan 12 2007 chown shouldn't this mean that the file is excecutable by all? even tried to switch to root first (just executing su) ... What i am more specifically trying to do is change the ownership of all the directories and files on a specific disk, mounted as /mnt/moviedisk, to the user that is supposed to own them. Any surgestions? What am i doing wrong as i cannot execute the chown command?
Sounds like your path doesn't include /usr/sbin, or /usr/sbin or /usr is mounted without exec.
Have you tried executing with the complete path: /usr/sbin/chown -Derek -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
