bug#9788: chown gets permission denied |

When trying to change ownership of the files in a directory, I mistakenly had
the settings wrong in the command, so I got the following
ls -l
total 16
drw-rw-r-- 4 user proj1 4096 Sep 28 14:23 doc/
drw-rw-r-- 24 user proj1 4096 Sep 28 14:27 modules/
drw-rw-r-- 3 user proj1 4096 Sep 28 14:23 project/
ls -l project
total 0
?--------- ? ? ? ? ? compile.conf
?--------- ? ? ? ? ? myproject.conf
?--------- ? ? ? ? ? novas_fli.so
Same for the other directories' contents.
When I try to chown -R or chgrp -R or rm -rf for project/ I get permission
denied. How can I use chown to set something valid (e.g., user proj1) so I can
get rid of these directories/files??
Thanks.
Richard
