Hi, Please, I am using rsync to synchronize local machine with remote machine. I already have some files copied. Now I have to change the ownership from existing files in the destination folder. I tried the following options but it did not worked. Can you please help me with other options or alternatives ? --perms --chown=user:group --chmod=777 --exclude-from=$EXCLUDES -avzi

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 Em Quinta-feira, 10 de Setembro de 2015 20:01, Kevin Korb <kmk at

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 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. On 09/10/2015 06:42 PM, Celso de Sousa Junior wrote: >

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.
