Thanks Edward..

 

That is what I am doing now.  Although, I do not believe that is  idempotent (forces changes even if it already correct) and is more resource intensive (I think) than using the directory resource…??

I have a recipe and in it I am trying to change the ownership recursively of an existing directory, subdirectory and files.   I thought the Directory resource would be what I should use.   However, it only changes the top level directory…    How could I do this idempotently if the directory resource doesn’t work?

 

 

directory "/var/spool/postfix" do

  owner "postfix"

  group "root"

  mode "0755"

  recursive true

  action :create

end
