file permision
How do u change the file permisions of a file an all of it's contents. I have a couple big folders, with a lot of single files with in them, i share with all my users and i want they all to read and write with the files. So is there away to change the files permisions of all the files. So i basically want to change the files permisions of many files at once. If you know how or of a program that does, i would a great help. thanks.

Use the chmod command. The general form is something like: chmod 755 /home/user/bigdir/* -R see: man chmod ___________________________________ Be prepared. Create a LifeBoat CD. http://users.rcn.com/srstites/LifeBo...home.page.html Steve Stites |
but isn't that for on file only, i need to change the access of hundreds of files at once. I could spend a weeking doing one at a time, there must be an easier way of doing it, like doing more then one at a time.

notice the -R option at the end of what jailbait gave you. You can also write it as
chmod -R 755 {target file/dir} The R stands for recursive. Take a look at man chmod. |
