Hi, I have been using my dos partition as a store for data files I don't use very often. Creating the files as a normal user, these files and the directories belonged to my username. Today I just found out that the ownerships had changed to root. I tried changing them back as root using chown and chgrp only to find out i could not do that. It kept saying Permission denied. When i tried changing the group from root to adm it said that I as root was not member of the group. What is going on ??? Any help would be appreciated. TIA George
