How to change ownership on files and folders? It isnt file permissions i want to change, it is ownership.

Looks like all the files and folders inside my 'files' folder have a different ownership than all the rest of my Drupal files and folders.

I've probably made a mistake somewhere when upgrading.

Anyway, now, there is no way for me to edit those page-nodes linked to any images coming from those 'foreign' folders

And i havent really found any documentation on the site about that.

Any ideas?

If you have shell access:
chown -R owner directory
or
chown -R owner:group directory
