Could I use something like this to set the proper ownership of a directory as well? I have copied all the user accounts from the BSDI machine to the Mandrake box, then I used a shell script to set the proper ownership of the directories, but I need to go in and set the sub directories. Here is the base script I am working off of, but I don't think it likes the -R option. grep /home/ /home/scott/homedirpass | awk -F: '{ print $1 " " $4 " " $6 ; }' \ | while read pwuser pwgid pwhome ; do [ -d $pwhome ] || ( chown $pwuser:$pwgid $pwhome ) done homedirpass is a copy of the Linux passwd file after I ran the script to convert the accounts to the new machine. Thanks, -Scott
