Hi.

My question is really very simple, I believe.

I have a user called "teste"

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ id teste
uid=1001(teste) gid=1001(teste) grupos=1001(teste)


I am user "aluno" and as so, I create a directory in my own $HOME

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ mkdir trash
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -ld trash
drwxr-xr-x 2 aluno aluno 4096 2006-08-14 23:09 trash

I want the user called "teste" to be the owner of this directory

[EMAIL PROTECTED] :~$ chown teste trash
chown: mudando permissões de `trash': Operação não permitida

That means "aluno" cannot do this.


Can someone explain me why he can't ?


More info:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] :~$ uname -a
Linux maq13 2.6.15-1-486 #2 Mon Mar 6 15:19:16 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /etc/debian_version
testing/unstable

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -l /bin/ch*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 33588 2006-05-27 17:28 /bin/chgrp
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 30800 2006-05-27 17:28 /bin/chmod
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 35912 2006-05-27 17:28 /bin/chown



Thanks for help.
