I used wget to transfer a directory from one of my servers to the other, and now my account does not have ownership of that directory. What can I do to change this? (I do have root access to the server).

Thanks,

Matt

chown username:group directory

chown username:group directory You might try it with chown -R username:group directory
The -R makes it recursive, and everything under/in it will be changed as well.
Just my $.02.
