[support] Providing ownerships of a subset ofthe siteto user/group

[Metzler, David]

Certainly willing to share with others.  A couple of caveats: 

* They only work on Linux with mysql, so they're not up to drupal
distribution standards. 

* They're currently dependent on the way that I have my multiple hosting
sites configured: (creating symbolic links in my htdocs directory, using
a common user across all my drupal sites, using root envioronment to
grant dba access/passwords, etc. )  

* I need a little time to bundle them.  (remove my passwords, add some
docs,etc). 

I'll put them up on a web site when I have a chance and send the link to
the support list.

Hello, David,

These scripts sound incredibly useful -- would you be willing to share
them?

Cheers,

Bill
