Thanks for the report. However, I suspect that what happened is that you have a file in your current working directory whose name starts with '-', and was therefore treated as an option. If I'm right, then this FAQ covers the situation: https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/faq/#I-have-a-file-_0027_002df_0027-and-it-affects-rm_002e and you can use either of these constructs to avoid the issue: chown user:user -R ./* chown user:user -R -- * For that matter, using '*' with -R is rather pointless; it risks exceeding command line limits and omits files whose names start with '.' in the current directory; you probably want to do: chown -R user:user . which is also mentioned in the FAQ: https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/faq/#ls-_002da-_002a-does-not-list-dot-files -- Eric Blake address@hidden +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
