Well, it seems that i can change the ownership of files, but when i try to change the ownerships of directories I can only change it to lets say: admin.web but not to web.web. This seems to be very strange behaviour to me.
BTW: The admin has userid 1001 and all other accounts have higher id's and i am logged in as admin when i chown.

Now that i'm talking about it, the message is not the same.. so are you sure you're logged as the 'admin' user before trying the chown ?
