lchown

(no version information, might be only in CVS)

lchown -- Changes user ownership of symlink

Description

bool lchown ( string filename, mixed user )

Attempts to change the owner of the symlink filename to user user.

Only the superuser may change the owner of a symlink.

Parameters

filename

Path to the file.

user

User name or number.

Return Values

Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

Notes

Note: This function will not work on remote files as the file to be examined must be accessible via the servers filesystem.

Note: When safe mode is enabled, PHP checks whether the files or directories you are about to operate on have the same UID (owner) as the script that is being executed.
