For each file, call the stat() API, that'll give you the owner and group that are associated to the file (in the st_uid and st_gid fields).

The owner/group from stat() will be numeric. To translate them into names, you can call the getpwuid() and getgrgid() APIs.

I probably have an example... somewhere... but at the moment, I don't have time to ferret it out. Please check and see if you can find an example via Google, and if you're still stuck, reply to this and I'll find some sample code for you.

I worked through Scott Klements example of reading a directory and pulling
in each of the file names in the directory. What I'd like to do is read
through a directory and draw in not only the file name but also the owner of
the file name. How would I do that? Examples would be real nice.

Thanks
