Thanks! The first command appeared to have worked well. The second
command worked after chown. Are there any other reasons than avoiding
accidental deletions to configure as 644 rather than 777?
Indexing after chmod was successful, by the way

How do you do this? I'm using Webmin, but I assume you're doing this in
the CLI? Other user might be adding files as well. Will this make files
they add have me as owner?
Do you have any advice to help me rip directly to the server? I've got
an Ubuntu laptop connected talking to the server, but Sound Juicer
won't let me rip files to the server.
