Running "sudo chgrp <name> mail" on a directory on a usb stick gives
"chgrp: changing group of `mail': Operation not permitted"
This is true for any file or directory on the stick, and yes, I entered
the password. I can't figure out how to copy to the stick without the
group being changed to root or how to change it after the fact.
cp -p test1 /media/disk doesn't do it and
cp -preserve=mode,ownership,group,timestamp test1 /media/disk gives
"cp: invalid option -- e"
I have to be doing something wrong but I'm not sure what. Google and
Ubuntu forums were no help but I may be searching on the wrong terms.
Any help appreciated. Thanks.
