Re: Permissions on FIles Moved
Thanks and he had the correct owner. Not sure what happen, but the issue was corrected. Like I said, an @ sign ended up on the owner's name if I recall correctly. Either way, something got hosed, but we got it cleared up. Permissions can be a funny thing and sure can cause some problems. :) tnx, On May 11, 2010, at 1:20 PM, Chris Blouch wrote: > My guess is he needs to change the owner of the file.

Re: Permissions on FIles Moved
My guess is he needs to change the owner of the file. If you do an ls -l on files in both locations it should list an owner name which should be the shortname for the account, along with the permissions. Might want to do a man on chown and chgrp which are the commands to change a file's owner and group.

Permissions on FIles Moved
Folks, I haven't done a lot of this, but a friend of mine has moved files from his folder to his daughter's. However, those files do not show up in the Finder when he logs into her account. He moved these initially via Terminal. He believes the permissions are correct, but I suspect there is something that is still needing to be done.
