restricted_chown

Description

This switch allows you to decide whether you want to use a BSD UNIX style chown(2) system call or the System V style. Under the BSD version, only the Superuser can use the chown system call to ''give away'' a file - to change the ownership to another user. Under the System V version, any user can give away a file or directory. If the value of the switch is 0, System V chown is enabled. If the value is not zero, BSD chown is enabled.

Value

Default: 0

Range: 0 or 1

When to Change

Change this switch to choose which behavior you prefer for the chown(2) system call.
