Re: Cannot chown as a user
I don't think reiserfs is your problems here. I would make sure you don't have your user name in /etc/passwd and in the NIS maps, perhaps with different UID's

Re: Cannot chown as a user
Been a while since I "did" NIS but a believe "ypcat passwd | grep
To be honest, you shouldn't have the user name in both so another solution may be to remove your user and see if you can still log in and everything starts working again. OF COURSE, remember that if you can't log in, you will need another account to get yourself working again.

Re: Cannot chown as a user
I'm with Olivier.
Generally, we can't "chown" our own files to others except we are "root accounts" on any unix-like system.
this is system security sense that prevent things happening like people throw "snow ball" ( your files) to each other.
if your are planing file xfer within your group. group permission setting is your Friends. hence, you may let us know what function/capability you are looking for ( file sharing ? ). people here definitely have a lot hints for your reference.
Cheers !

Re: Cannot chown as a user
The only reason Michael could chown his file-is because he already ran the SUID command on /bin/chown.

Re: Cannot chown as a user
e.g. create yourself a set-uid script and chown it to root and you've got a problem on your hands!
We've done a work-around to our problem by using groups and the chgrp command to achieve what we need!
