Date: Fri, 02 Jul 2004 16:13:51 -0700 Sender: linux-admin-owner@vger.kernel.org Message-ID: <40E5EC2F.3090802@hosttuls.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Return-path: List-Id: Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format="flowed" To: Linux Admin I'm a little embarrassed to be asking such a newb question like this, but how would I view a files owner if username is + 8 chars? Is there a simple ls option (I couldnt find it) to do this? Or perhaps another command I am forgetting about? Other then greping the passwd file, how would one find this information out? -- Thanks, Brandon E.
