chown [filename] [user_id_number] so if file is letter and user id is 501 it would be chown letter 501 first non root user for user accounts is 500. so each user added is one higher in number. and the user must exist before chown will work. ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca To unsubscribe from this list, please email [EMAIL PROTECTED] & you will be removed.
