You can easily change the ownership permission in Linux by using chown command. Let us go through the procedure in detail.
  • Log in to your SSH with root.
  • Move inside the directory where you want to perform the changes by using the cd path/to/directory command.
  • Now use the ls -all command to view the user & group of every file/directory. 
  • Use the chown user:group DirectoryName command as:
# chown USER FILE
  • You can also change the owner permission of multiple files at once.
# chown RSH File1 Directory1 

The above command will change the ownership of a file named File1 and directory named Directory1 to a new owner named RSH.
