Hi all...

[chic_1]

I am a root user of the system.But when i am trying to change ownership of certain files in that system.(chown -h root ).The error comes user doesn't have access.These files are links.Even if i go inside its parent directory,the same error displays.

Please provide a solution if any..

Hi Chic:

This will either be an NFS mounted directory or a problem with the permissions on the directory. Do a 'ls -lad dirname' to check the dir permissons.

In future, please provide a more suitabel subject, you may get more answers that way.
"Hi all.." is not acceptable

Chic,

Please make sure that the file is not protected.

provide ls -l /path to file

getacl /path to parent directory...
