Hi I don't no why I'm not able to post messages anymore. I'm trying it from webmail now.
Well, I've tried it but it still doesn't give me access. Perhaps I should mention that those files were on a separate drive? Well, what I did was log in as root and copy those files to the second partition since I couldn't copy them otherwise. Now when I log in as myself, I have more priviliges. I can see my movies for example. But the old User Library that I had copied over still stumps me. I can't copy and paste the Mail folder for example. But unlike before, I can at least open the mail folder. Should I try that command again and log in as root to do it? Thanks! -Felix On Friday, January 09, 2004, at 05:49PM, Peter da Silva <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> chown [-R [-H | -L | -P]] [-fh] [owner][:group] file ... > >Aha, use "-R" instead of "-r"... the command is case-sensitive. > >> How many hours will it take me to know what you know about these >> arcane commands? > >These aren't the arcane commands.
