Wow, it does chown and chmod as well, thats friggen cool.

chown will only work if the script is running as root which I doubt your drupal site will be.

Or if the script is running as a user/group that has write permissions to the dir/file that your trying to chown.

chmod may allow that, but not chown. server:~# groupadd test server:~# useradd a -g test server:~# useradd b -g test server:~# mkdir /test server:~# chown a.test /test server:~# su - a No directory, logging in with HOME=/ a@server:/$ cd test a@server:/test$ chmod 775 . a@server:/test$ touch a a@server:/test$ chmod 664 a a@server:/test$ chown b.test a chown: changing ownership of `a': Operation not permitted a@server:/test$ -- Postgresql & php tutorials http://www.designmagick.com/
