How can you change the owner or group of a file?

Answer Posted / hr@tgksolutions.com

The chown command is used to change the owner of a file or directory. For instance, chown newowner filename would change the file's owner to "newowner". If you want to change both the owner and the group simultaneously, you will use a syntax like chown newowner:newgroup filename. For altering only the group, the chgrp command is used. As with most UNIX commands, care should be taken with these tools, ensuring that ownership is only granted to trusted users.
