Is the command "CHOWN" or "CHOWN(1)" ?
Thank you, for the info on this particular error as I had fond that the
chown command was some how to be used,
Probably off topic here, but it would be a great help if you could answer.
I've been puzzled by the (1)? My attempt at finding --h help or invoking
the command using "chown(1)" always returned the "unexpected argument "(""
error. I haven't quite figured out (1)'s meaning or necessity.
Being new to Linux and Unix and a Mister Literal has left me wondering if
(1) or (2) is not part of the command, why is it there?
If that info has been lost in the Unix Halls of Time that's OK. As I
remember from my 8-bit days ( was a reserved character in the DOS world,
Same set in the Unix world?
As a wise instructor friend of mine said "Common sense is only what has
been commonly taught." I keep finding I missed that class at some point.
