Hi Folks: I know that this is a kinda basic question, but I don't want to totally mess up my webserver. I have moved some directories to our new webserver, and because of the move, they have all been flagged as owned by and in the root group. I want to change this to tholmes owner, and apache group. I am familiar with the chown and chgrp commands, my question pertains to using the recursive flag and the proper syntax for it. For example the directory /var/www/html/mcaschool/ contains our schools website -- every file within that website should have a owner of tholmes and group of apache. As I understand it, I would issue the following commands from the /var/www/html/mcaschool/ directory: chown tholmes /var/www/html/mcaschool/* -R chgrp apache /var/www/html/mcaschool/* -R Is this correct, or what is the correct command sequence. I think I have found the right commands, but I don't dare try it till I am sure as I cannot afford to screw up the entire site.
