Learning by doing ;). $ chown --help Usage: chown [OPTION]... [OWNER][:[GROUP]] FILE... or: chown [OPTION]... --reference=RFILE FILE... [snip] Examples: chown root /u Change the owner of /u to "root". chown root:staff /u Likewise, but also change its group to "staff". chown -hR root /u Change the owner of /u and subfiles to "root". When you learned how to use several commands, you automatically learn how to interpret something like [OWNER][:[GROUP]]. Sometimes man(ual)pages and --help gives examples. > By the way, is there any particular reason you choose to use startpage > instead of Google or DuckDuckGo?
