Hi,

I know the ownerships on symlinks don't really do anything (atleast that's
what the UNIX FAQ says), but is there any way to change them without
deleting and re-adding them?  I've got a script that runs daily, that
checks for any files not owned to a valid user.  We have a number of sym
links like that.  I was just deleting them and re-adding them, but there
has to be a better way.

Do permissions and ownerships do anything to a symlink?

Thanks,
	Rick
