If xxx is a soft link, I am finding that the chown command has no effect in changing ownership of xxx: if xxx is owned by bob, then chown fred xxx seems to have no effect at all. Is this how it should be? I'm finding this a bit frustrating. -- Stephen Montgomery-Smith stephen@math.missouri.edu http://www.math.missouri.edu/~stephen To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
