subuserchown − change the owner of a file owned by a sub-user |
|
subuserchown username filename |
|
Changes the owner of a file to the named owner. This is useful for reclaiming output files from subusers. Requires that two conditions be met: |
|
• |
The file is currently owned by the calling user or some subuser of the calling user. |
||
|
• |
The username given is either the calling user’s username or the username of a descendant in the subuser tree of the calling user. |
|
For an overview of how the subuser tools interact and how they keep track of what users “belong” to whom, see subusers(7). |
|
