thank you
in solaris there´s a parameter that you can change in /etc/system that
allows you to do this
is there anyway to do something similar on aix?

Por favor, responda a IBM AIX Discussion List <aix-l@Princeton.EDU>

Clasificación:

only root can use chown if the man page is correct:

"Only the root user can change the owner of a file. You can change the
group
of a
file only if you are a root user or if you own the file. If you own the
file
but
are not a root user, you can change the group only to a group of which you
are a
member."

that's from an AIX 4.3.3 ml10 machine.
