These commands:
chown = change owner, executed as "chown userid filespec"
chgrp = change group, executed as "chgrp grpname filespec"
chmod = change mode (permissions), executed as "chown ### filespec"
In the above, you can substitute a number for userid or grpname, and you
need a 3-digit octal number in chmod . The man pages for these commands have
this in more and better detail.
