If so, how? chown -R <user>.<group> <path_to_files>/* chown -R <user>.<group> <path_to_dir> chmod -R <uoag><+/-><perms> <path_to_files>/* chmod -R <uoag><+/-><perms> <path_to_dir> man chown man chmod u=user o=owner a=all g=group There are also numbers for permissions which represent the bit patterns.
