NAME

sdfchown, sdfchgrp − change owner or group of an SDF file

SYNOPSIS

sdfchown owner device:file ... 

sdfchgrp group device:file ... 

DESCRIPTION

sdfchown and sdfchgrp are intended to mimic chown(1) and chgrp(1).

An SDF file name is recognized by the embedded colon (:) delimiter (see sdf(4) for SDF file naming conventions). 

sdfchown changes the owner of the files to owner. The owner can be either a decimal user ID or a login name found in the password file. 

sdfchgrp changes the group ID of the files to group. The group can be either a decimal group ID or a group name found in the group file. 

EXAMPLES

The following examples assume that an SDF directory structure exists on the HP-UX device file /dev/rdsk/c9d1d5. 

Set the owner of the SDF file /users/abc/phone.num to adm:

sdfchown adm /dev/rdsk/c9d1d5:/users/abc/phone.num

Set the group ID of the SDF file /tmp/b.date to the decimal number 105:

sdfchgrp 105 /dev/rdsk/c9d1d5:/tmp/b.date
