Re: Recursively Change IFS Authority

How would I go about recursively changing the authority/owner for all
objects in a IFS directory? Is there an IBM delivered program that would do
this?



This is easy to do in QSHELL.   For example, to change everything in
directory called /some/dir to be owned by klemscot:

  STRQSH
  find /some/dir -exec chown klemscot {} \;

Or alternatively:

cd /some/dir
chown -R user:group *

The -R means recursive.
