Doubt on usage of rsync for chown of existing folders
Hi Kevin,
Thank you very much. I changed my user in the remote machine (su).
Then, by trying again with rsync but with no modification in the source folder,
I see that file ownership continues the same.
Would be possible for rsync to change the ownership in this case (I am not root)
?
Thanks,
Regards,CJ

The syntax looks correct. However, note that only root can chown.
You must be running rsync on the target end as root for --chown or
- --owner to work. If you aren't using root access then just run the
target rsync as the user you want the files to be owned by and it will
have no choice.

Doubt on usage of rsync for chown of existing folders
Hi
I would like to have changes (chown) in the destination.
However, some files did not changed size or rights. All files should have new
owner.
Thanks,
Regards,CJ

Rsync does not change anything on the source. Only on the target.
Only root can change the ownership of a file.
