>From the "Recovering from Windows penchant for spaces in user and file
names" Department:
Maybe I'm being really dense, but the --from switch isn't quite
working as advertised:
george@home ~/test
$ ls -ln
-rwxrwxrwx 1 544 513 48 Nov 17 03:59 testfile
george@home ~/test
$ chown --from=514:513 1008:513 testfile
george@home ~/test
$ ls -ln
-rwxrwxrwx 1 544 513 48 Nov 17 03:59 testfile
Thanks.
